Or racial makeup of there community so they see that the jury may understand them better.
Social science research supports Justice Marshall's observations and has found that diverse juries are more likely to “get it right” than non-diverse juries. Diverse juries encourage vigorous debate, which encourages jurors to read a case's facts and proof more carefully.

Why is a diverse jury essential?
Diverse juries were also more thorough in their evaluation of the evidence. On average, diverse juries reflected 11 minutes longer, discussed more facts about the case, and made fewer factual errors than all-white juries. Finally, diverse juries were better available to speaking about the role of race in the case.
How can the diversity or lack of diversity of a jury affect justice in a trial?
