The Boondocks by Aaron McGruder for March 09, 2010

Here in NYC, Al has shut his mouth a lot more, served as a real minister a lot more, taken a lot more advice, and paid a lot more attention to where the problems he sees are rooted. When he speaks out, he doesn’t embarrass himself or others.

So he gets a lot more respect (and a lot less national notoriety) these days. The die-hards duly grumble, but most of the city is glad to have him now. He always did have a good heart and a generous conscience. I’m glad that’s what (usually) shows these days.

Meanwhile, we can still treasure the Boondocks artifacts. They were right-on at the time.
