Seems that Henry Louis Gates and Sergeant James Crowley of the Cambridge, Massachusetts PD are hanging out now. WBZ-TV from Cambridge has the story:
Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates and Cambridge police Sergeant James Crowley were spotted at a pub in Cambridge Wednesday night. The owner of the pub said the two sat in a booth together and talked for about an hour.
Over the summer, Crowley arrested Gates for disorderly conduct while responding to reports of a possible break-in at Gates' home. Gates accused the officer of racial profiling.
The incident led to a nation-wide debate over racial profiling and race relations, when President Barack Obama commented on the situation by coming to Gates' defense. All three men later sat at a table outside the White House in what became known as the 'beer summit.'
