<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Collects cartoon strips about Huey and Riley, two African-American boys transported from Chicago to a very white suburban town to live with their grandfather, providing a caustically humorous portrait of the American racial and political landscape.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>The Boondocks</i> is a rich, multilayered comic strip that offers a frank yet often funny look at race in America. It starts with a simple premise: Two young boys, Riley and Huey, move from inner-city Chicago to live with their grandfather in the suburbs. The tension increases, however, because the two boys are African-Americans now compelled to adapt to a white suburban world. They must take all they've learned in the "hood" and apply it to life in the 'burbs. Superbly illustrated, <i>The Boondocks</i> has stirred controversy, attracted widespread media coverage, and won readers who've applauded McGruder's unapologetic and humorous approach to race. In this second collection of <i>Boondocks</i> cartoons, readers can get another look at this innovative strip.</p> <br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>McGruder has become a widely heard and respected commentator on race, politics, and entertainment. The cartoonist was born in Chicago but grew up in racially diverse Columbia, Maryland. "The Boondocks" first saw print in the student newspaper at the University of Maryland where he majored in Afro-American studies.
