About KC Williams
Real Talk ATL
Comedy Writer & Cultural Commentator
KC Williams is Atlanta's funniest voice on the scene — part comedian, part cultural anthropologist, all Atlanta. His column Real Talk ATL finds the comedy hidden inside everyday life: the politics of a cookout, the unwritten rules of Lenox Mall, and why the I-285 should be classified as a war crime.
KC grew up in College Park and has never left — spiritually, at least. He's the cousin at the family reunion who keeps everyone crying laughing while somehow making profound points about Black life in the South. Real talk, indeed.
