Like Belafonte, Williams doesn’t shy from prickly interactions, but his occur online. Williams began tweeting and tumbling about Brown, who was killed on Aug. 9, on Aug. 10. On Aug. 13, he broadcasted a command to his 715,000 Twitter followers: “All of you vile, incurious, justify-anything, white supremacist cowards need to miss me w/ the bulls— & unfollow, forthwith. #Ferguson.” When a follower informed Williams his tweeting was turning her off as a fan, Williams wrote, “Please disabuse yourself of the notion that my purpose on earth is to tuck ignorance in at night. #ViolenceIncites #Ferguson.” Fyi, the article also mentions some possibly less known info re Harry Belafontes FINANCIAL commitment to the movement. He may not have always been able to be on the front lines but his support was unquestionably. #TogetherWeStand
