    Almost every one of the characters in Crash plays a role of prejudice‚ ignorance or racial profiling. I can make this judgment based on various scenes from the movie.

For example‚ the very first scene was of a car accident in which an Asian woman kept trying to say the word brake and the female detective mocked
