RIP Clarence Williams III. Played some of the best roles on television but _Tales_ and _Sugar Hill_ are bonafide classic roles.

[@matthewschwartz6607]

Yeah, I loved him as that mortician.

[@paulbenes04]

​@@matthewschwartz6607oh, yes, tha shit. Tha doo-doo. The poopity-pop. The shit. We're gonna get tha shit.

[@debdessaso]

Clarence made history the old-fashioned way: he earned it. There was no glitter-glam, posturing, or artificial notoriety, just good solid acting. Best of all, he didn't let himself get pigeonholed...sometimes he was the good guy, sometimes the bad guy, but always the excellent actor. Clarence, rest in peace, rest in power.

[@lawarrenpatterson1066]

Brilliant and eloquent responses by Mr Williams.

[@davidhutchinson5233]

Man, this guy. Mad respect. Such a force in acting. From the early days....Mod Squad to Sugar Hill to even Star Trek, Deep Space Nine....he fills out completely every role he plays.

[@rocjones6543]

I recognized him instantly through the makeup on Star Trek deep space-time .

[@RayAtkins-wk9zv]

I didn't know he was gone rip mr Williams a hell of an actor

[@MrTonyMontana1177]

RIP Mr. Williams. It's surprising to see the real person here after viewing him in such powerful performances as this and "52 Pick-Up."

[@sweetpea7684]

Great interview. Mr. Clarence Williams was MASTERFUL

R.I.P. Clarence Williams III (1938-2021)

[@mr1597]

Though a very small role, he was outstanding as Prince's dad in Purple Rain. A great Thespian and a hard working actor who did the most out of every role.

[@arleneliberti2949]

REST IN HEAVENLY PARADISE MR. CLARENCE WILLIAMS 111. LOVED YOU IN THE MOD SQUAD A BEAUTIFUL BLACK MAN.

[@alexrichrevue5731]

Clarence Williams III : an incredibly gifted and powerfully insightful uber deep thinking brother who brought characters to life on screen to the level that made it reality - and the viewer is there! For us growing up in the real hood (in my case the mean streets of South Bronx, NY)- CWIII was our idol - a hero and role model with his performance as “Linc” on Mod Squad- (forgot the cop angle)- he brought so many layers to Linc and played him with strength, pride and dignity- a strong BLACK MAN- whose pursuit of truth, justice and meaning was inspirational!! R.I.P. 🙏🏿🌅✊🏾

[@Early-fe6dh]

Lol the mean streets of the burnt down Bronx as it was also called in those days Sothern. Blvd and Intervale Ave......

[@theresagreen9855]

Clearance Williams III is a great actor I loved him as Link Hayes in mod squid but I love him as a real person humble, attractive. Handsome it was said when he died.

[@Early-fe6dh]

Loved him as Linc. Felt like my uncle back in the 70s. Every body had a cool hip Uncle and aunt til you found out they were never married they were really your cousins......😂

[@zxcccccc1]

Thanks Westly you gave us a classic

[@damianstarks3338]

[@youknowwhatflav9916]

[@richardwashington9936]

RIP will be missed

[@TerryMcBride-c5q]

An American Icon,As a white man this fine Gentleman touched me emotionally growing up and I have never before or since experienced anything like his screen presence,I don’t understand how he’s not celebrated more,Perhaps it’s the perversion of the industry of which he had nothing to do with,I’ve never been more certain of anything in my life. Rest in peace Mr. Clarence Williams III

The movie showed the evil of drugs

[@Prousto]

Incredibly versatile actor with great screen presence and a great voice. Screen actors aren’t as interesting anymore.

[@titanjake8640]

Great actor.... hoodlum man he was good...

[@TheShabazzProduction]

A deep ass conversation! And then go listen to Gil Scott-Herons Pieces of a Man.

[@c1979h]

Sorry Clarence, society has failed us. We have all these avenues to obtain knowledge during these times, but many still glorify the dumb and simple minded thinking. No one wants to be a true leader.., but they want the accolades.

[@Twan1985]

Francis L.

[@NohealaniMakanani]

That was so random. Why bring up Denzel Washington was also a fan of dallas cowboys? 🤔

[@stephencarter744]

Yeah, I'm hoping that they happened to be talking about Denzel before they went live. Otherwise that's just uncouth and 'not ready for primetime'.
