    How he talks about the wire with such love and admiration after all these years is great. Great actor with one of the most impressive TV resumes of all time.

    HUGE respect for you, Mr. Williams. Your commitment to your craft – to presenting images and stories that reflect our world – is laudable. I only wish more American’s in a position to speak would take ownership of their responsibilities to each other.

    Not many actors can grab my attention they way he can…Omar, chalky, and the character he plays in the night of are just and amazing examples of the art behind REAL ACTING coupled w equally great writing…

    He acted with the best rapper alive, then worked with the best director alive, then went on to be in 2 of the best TV shows ever made and more recently he was in one of the best documentaries ever created. And he stood out as an exceptional actor in all of those things. Truly a legend.
