Tyler James Williams is a star on Abbott Elementary and he’s now Emmy nominated but he first blew up years ago on Everybody Hates Chris playing young Chris Rock. He’s a great comedic actor and a deep introvert and a very thoughtful person who loves to be alone with a book. We talk about acting and getting out of the child star trap and what it was like to have his father, a police officer, put him in handcuffs just so he’d know what it’s like.

Right now in Iran we are witnessing a massive revolution—the people are rising up to demand freedom from the repressive regime. That regime is responding with murder. Several activists have been executed for the crime of protesting. And yet thousands continue protesting. Western media isn’t really talking about it but my friend, the actor, Mozhan Marnó, is in touch with people inside Iran and she’s at the UN fighting on their behalf and she’s explaining to me what’s really going on in this huge national uprising.
