McGruder is an odd duck... kind of a communists/blackpower weenie/social commentarist. If we could only get him to see that the forces of socialism are even worse for individual freedom than current government...
See he understands about the self destruction and stupidity of the "urban youth culture", but he's still blaming the white man and the government. He started off as a grad student in I think Maryland, but managed to get syndicated. The longer he's been out in reality, the less "the man is keepin us down" shit shows up in his work, and the more "we're keepin ourselves down" takes over.
Just a few more steps Aaron, you'll get here eventually.
