All the rage: The boondocks past and present Since it started national syndication in 1999, McGruder's comic strip has been famous for its sharp satiric perspective on African-American culture.

This book is not only a retrospective of this decade's most impressive comic strips, but also a sharp reminder of shifting public opinion. |
