Recently while in NYC we had the chance to sit down with actor Michael K. Williams who has had another busy year with his two recent releases KILL THE MESSENGER  and THE GAMBLER along with the final season of BOARDWALK EMPIRE but who is affectionately or notoriously still known in the hood for playing an iconic role of a Baltimore Gangster named Omar in the HBO television drama THE WIRE.  We talked to him about how that role changed the trajectory of his acting career and in an ironic twist he speaks on both the murder of cops and Eric Garner and Michael Brown days before the NYPD killing of Two NYC Police Officers, Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu in the Beford-Stuvesant neigborhood of Brooklyn.
