It's been nearly a week since LAPD handcuffed, detained and released African American actress Daniele Watts in response to a complaint of indecent exposure. Watts has since filed a complaint with the department.
Her facebook posting and the subsequent release by TMZ of audio from the altercation reignited the debate about racial profiling, police procedure and when you are and are not obligated show an officer your ID. But today, civil rights activists Earl Ofari Hutchinson and Najee Ali, who both initially came to Watts' defense, are calling on the actress to apologize to the LAPD in light of new information that they contend casts doubt on her claim.
