Daniele Watts, black ‘Django Unchained’ actress, mistaken for prostitute, handcuffed and detained by police after kissing white husband
The actress was humiliated for simply showing public affection to her husband after cops mistook her for a prostitute and she refused to show ID. ‘I remembered the countless times my father came home frustrated ... by cops when he had done nothing wrong,’ Watts wrote on Facebook.
A black actress who appeared in “Django Unchained” was handcuffed and detained for kissing her white husband — because police allegedly assumed she was a prostitute.
Daniele Watts burst into tears after she was handcuffed by Los Angeles police in Studio City on Saturday for kissing her husband, Brian Lucas, in public.
Writing on their Facebook pages, Watts and Lucas say they were approached by two officers and the actress was asked for ID.
When Watts refused, police handcuffed her before putting her in the back of a police car.
She was released after her ID was checked by the officers.
Watts wrote: "Today I was handcuffed … after refusing to agree that I had done something wrong by showing affection, fully clothed, in a public place.
"As I was sitting in the back of the police car, I remembered the countless times my father came home frustrated or humiliated by cops when he had done nothing wrong. I felt his shame, his anger.
Watts, who played CoCo in Quentin Tarantino's slavery film, said she was crying "for a country that calls itself 'the land of the free and the home of the brave,' and yet detains people for claiming that very right'".
The LAPD refused to comment on the incident.
blah blah blah "i wanna fukk white women and complain about black women fukking white men" blah blah blah
you really just want a bigger dating pool and you're mad that black girls are trying to do the same which only makes it harder for you to get laid
Again, this is your jealous imagination. You have believed the white man's lies about us. He made them up to confuse simps like you.
Tbt, white men are frustrated with bw because they know we aren't giving it up to them like that. I don't know any bw that has ever had a one night stand with or slept with a white guy in under a few months.
Many of them feel inadequate around bw and are afraid of rejection, so as a defense they use the 'not attracted to' crutch and/or try to question our character or sexual integrity. WW don't face this because of white privelege. She can be smutted out in 10 pornos, it doesn't matter.
I bet you we don't have white men in our music videos and on the covers of our magazines either.
I mean ask a thousand guys on this site what their preference happens to be and only a small percentage will state a preference for black women. And an even smaller percentage would state a preference for a black woman who is not light skinned.
At least 7...I made one too,lolHow many times this thread will be made today?

What a tool you are. We are not arguing that men are not seen as the head over women.
You seem to be making this argument to convince yourself into thinking that dating/being seen out in public with/marrying ww in no way promotes white supremacy (and somehow you seem to imply bw/ww even makes bm look powerful) therefore it's ok for bm to date out but not the other way around.
What you seem to forget (or not realize, cause you're that dense) is that as a black man you are a BRAND. To make your brand look good and appear powerful, you support all of its interests.
If the owner of Coca-Cola is always seen drinking Pepsi, people aren't going to think 'hey, why is Coke drinking up all the Pepsi?'
Rather, they're going to think 'hey, whats wrong with Coke?' and therefore will deduce that Pepsi is the shyt. Then everyone will start to drink Pepsi.
