The HBO series 'The Wire'. Nathan 'Bodie' Barksdale (RIP). West Baltimore. The real Barksdale. One of his brothers took my hat off my head when I was in 7th grade middle school while walking to the bus stop. He looked like he was 16 in the 9th grade.😂 A girl he was walking with made him give it back. Over the span of Bodie's life, he was shot 22 times and survived...
The Wire was based on real life events in east and west Baltimore.
