Zimmerman, who is Hispanic, was initially not charged with a crime because, police said, they thought the killing was justified under the state's "stand your ground" law. The case has prompted a national discussion — and tension — over race.

    And they pointed to President Obama, who's election inspired talk of a post-racial society. But some of his detractors, Sharpton said, proved America isn't there yet, with calls for his birth certificate.
