Actor J.D. Williams—The Wire's Bodie—on the NYPD "Stop & Frisk" Policy

Democracy Now 
J.D. Williams, an actor who played drug dealer Preston "Bodie" Broadus on the hit HBO series, The Wire, took part in Sunday's New York City march against the NYP'D's stop-and-frisk policy. "It's a sad thing that becomes kind of natural with young black men," Williams says. "It becomes second nature with us, in a way that we expect to be stopped or we expect to be bothered or we expect to be harassed."
