“This Isn’t the N—a Show”
When The Boondocks first aired, creator Aaron McGruder was quick to remind folks that it wasn’t “the n—a show.” Here’s what he hoped his show would accomplish: “I just wish we would expand the dialogue and evolve past the same conversation that we’ve had over the past 30 years about race in our country.
