The controversy continues involving the arrest of Harvard University African-American scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. by Cambridge, Massachusetts police officer James Crowley, during the investigation of a reported home break-in. Gates and his driver were trying to get into Gates's house, which had a stuck door, when a passerby called the police, believing it to be a break-in. A confrontation between Gates and Crowley ensued, with Gates's arrest for disorderly conduct. Supporters of both men have come out in support. The President faced criticism over comments made about the case that were derogatory to the police. Accusations of racism and racial profiling have been made.
