Michael K. Williams

God has blessed me. I've been given a lot. I'm at peace with myself. It's time to give back.

Having been through the muck and mire, I've had my own brush with bad choices.

The arts saved my life.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.

I love Brooklyn; it's a part of who you are.

I had siblings from South Asia, from East Asia, from depressed communities around America, and you know, we'd have long conversations.
