- On July 16, 2009, Harvard University professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. was arrested at his Cambridge, Massachusetts home by local police officer Sgt. James Crowley, who was responding to a 911 caller's report of men breaking and entering the residence. The arrest initiated a series of events that unfolded under the spotlight of the international news media. The arrest occurred just after Gates returned home to Cambridge after a trip to China to research the ancestry of Yo-Yo Ma for Faces of America. Gates found the front door to his home jammed shut and, with the help of his driver, tried to force it open. A local witness reported their activity to the police as a potential burglary in progress. Accounts regarding the ensuing confrontation differ, but Gates was arrested by the responding officer, Cambridge Police Sgt. James Crowley, and charged with disorderly conduct. On July 21, the charges against Gates were dropped. The arrest generated a national debate about whether or not it represented an example of racial profiling by police. On July 22, President Barack Obama said about the incident, "I don't know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played in that. But I think it's fair to say, number one, any of us would be pretty angry; number two, that the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home, and, number three, what I think we know separate and apart from this incident is that there's a long history in this country of African Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately." Law enforcement organizations and members objected to Obama's comments and criticized his handling of the issue. In the aftermath, Obama stated that he regretted his comments and hoped that the situation could become a "teachable moment". On July 24, Obama invited both parties to the White House to discuss the issue over a beer, and on July 30, Obama and Vice President Joe Biden joined Crowley and Gates in a private, cordial meeting in a courtyard near the White House Rose Garden; this became known colloquially as the "Beer Summit". Years later, in his memoir A Promised Land, Obama wrote that according to the White House's polling, the incident caused a larger drop in white support for his presidency than any other single event.

- 亨利·盖茨被捕事件是一起在美国引发种族歧视争议的事件。 2009年7月16日，美国哈佛大学知名黑人教授返回麻萨诸塞州剑桥市的自家住所时，因门锁锁死而强行打开大门。一位邻居把他误认为破门而入的盗窃者，于是打电话报警。盖茨向警察出示了身份证件，表明他是房主，但由于他与白人警官詹姆斯·克劳利发生争执，被警察以行为不端逮捕，这一指控后来被撤销。 实施逮捕的詹姆斯·克劳利说，盖茨教授当时行为粗鲁。盖茨教授则说，自己是种族脸谱化的受害者，被逮捕是因为自己的黑皮肤，而不是因为做了什么错事。有关盖茨的风波已导致全国把注意焦点转向种族偏见问题。民权领袖几十年来一直抱怨警方时常不公正地把少数族裔作为勒令停车或者刑事调查的優先对象。克劳利是剑桥警局一位可敬而且经验丰富的警察，他曾经教育新警察如何避免种族成见。 (zh)

- On the porch of a yellow-clapboard house stands a middle-aged African American man in polo shirt and slacks, in the middle of a statement, his mouth agape, his hands handcuffed to the front. Behind him stands a uniformed Caucasian policeman, lightly grasping the man's upper arm. Facing the pair is an officer to the right, his left hand held up in a "hold on" gesture. Another African American officer is in the foreground, below the level of the porch, with his arms akimbo and his back to the scene while he faces the general direction of the camera. (en)
