The Boondocks
The first anthology of the beloved comic strip that inspired the critically acclaimed Cartoon Network show. In 1999, Aaron McGruder launched a cultural phenomenon with his smart and bitingly satirical comic strip, The Boondocks. It centers on the experiences of two young African-American boys, Huey and Riley, who move from inner-city Chicago to the suburbs (or the "boondocks" to them). The strip fuses hip-hop sensibilities with Japanese anime-style drawings and a candid discussion of race. In this first collection of Boondocks cartoons, you'll discover the funny yet revealing combination of superb art and envelope-pushing content in one of the most unique strips ever.
Birth of a Nation
A scathingly funny graphic novel from a veritable dream team of collaborators, premised on the question: what would happen if East St. Louis seceded from the union? Remember the 2000 election debacle in Florida, what would happen if the same thing were to happen in East St. Louis? What if the dissed city seceded and declared itself the sovereign Republic of Blackland? Written by one of America's leading political satirists and a pioneering black filmmaker, this takes the botched election of 2000 and turns it into an absurd conclusion - this is political humour at its best.
All the Rage
Aaron McGruder's hilariously offensive comic strip has never been afraid to tell it like it is. Now Huey, Riley and Granddad have their own hit animated series on the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, the masses are praising McGruder's precocious preteens and their brilliant politically and racially charged humour. Also available are Public Enemy # 2, Birth of a Nation and A Right To Be Hostile.
Public Enemy 2
A collection of more than five hundred strips from the popular and subversive comic strip The Boondocks provides a satirical look at the follies, foibles, and complexities of modern life from an African-American perspective as it offers a provocative take on Condoleezza Rice's love life, Dick Cheney, the war in Iraq, The Passion of Christ, and more. Original. 75,000 first printing.
The Souls of Mixed Folk
The Souls of Mixed Folk examines representations of mixed race in literature and the arts that redefine new millennial aesthetics and politics. Focusing on black-white mixes, Elam analyzes expressive works—novels, drama, graphic narrative, late-night television, art installations—as artistic rejoinders to the perception that post-Civil Rights politics are bereft and post-Black art is apolitical. Reorienting attention to the cultural invention of mixed race from the social sciences to the humanities, Elam considers the creative work of Lezley Saar, Aaron McGruder, Nate Creekmore, Danzy Senna, Colson Whitehead, Emily Raboteau, Carl Hancock Rux, and Dave Chappelle.
