but some will interpret trerpt president of the united states giving voice that the shooting was racially and if trayvon martin had been white that wouldn't have happened or at the very least there would have been a different jury verdict, if no trial at all. >> remember, we have ongoing in washington and down in florida, an investigation by the justice department to recheck the work of state law enforcement down there and looking for a civil rights component. the only way you can really get the justice department involved down there is if attorney general eric holder and his team make a conclusion that there was a racial inec x equequity here a hispanic man killed a black teenager, whether it was found to be in self-defense or not, if it was deemed to be a racial matter or racially charged in some way, it opens the door for federal intervention. the president seemed to be leaning in that direction in those comments. >> although the fbi, a branch of department of justice a year ago, did a fairly thorough investigation interviewing 36 witnesses and found, i think i'm quoting it correctly,

alexis, you wrote an article about this verdict and also maybe some changes coming to sanford about voices united just getting this put in the judicial system, but seeing it processed and zimmerman being arrested and charged. you write, kind red spirits are gathering to lament the outcome of a controversial trial that some feel underscores a widespread belief that for african-americans true justice is a fleeting idea. explain that. >> the idea a young black man in america can be killed and shot and the person who did it can admit it and absolutely no repercussions is something african-americans already believe. not just in sanford, but in communities across the country, this is the feeling that justice does not serve us and young black men are particularly vulnerable. this is just driving that home for black people in every city. >> and how -- how does sanford, in and of itself, if we kind of get 30,000 feet on this, get above it and use that area as the microcosm for change, how do we do that? >> today there will be a protest. there are religious leaders who are organizing a protest for 3 p.m. t
