>> why didn't the prosecution bring up the whole issue of race? they never -- they said there was some profiling, but they never said racial profiling. they tried to avoid the whole racial aspect. >> we have a problem in this nation that we think that discussing race even in intelligent terms, even when it's a factor, is wrong. we have a problem in this nation that by not discussing it, we're solving the problem, we're diminishing the problem b with we're getting away from the problem. i think what this demonstrates is we are a better nation if we can intelligently discuss it. if we can recognize it's not a factor in every single thing. but it is a significant factor. and i think it played a role. and that's why the emotions around this have been so raw. that's why the sense that justice has not been done is so strong. >> i want you to listen also to rachel, the 19-year-old woman, the last person who spoke with trayvon martin before he was shot and killed.
