Huey R. Freeman[1] is the main protagonist and narrator of The Boondocks syndicated comic strip written by Aaron McGruder, as well as the animated TV sitcom of the same name.[2] Politically sapient and borderline militant, Huey, being a self-described revolutionary left-wing radical, regularly reflects upon current events as well as the plight of African-Americans as it relates to a greater American society. As presented by his logical and rational personality, Huey's character has often been described as "misanthropic" and "cynical". He's named after Huey P. Newton, one of the co-founders and leaders of the Black Panther Party.[3] He is voiced by Regina King.[4] In the original pilot, he was voiced by singer Alicia Keys.
Huey and his younger brother Riley (also voiced by King) grew up on the South Side of Chicago and moved with their grandfather Robert Jebediah Freeman miles away to the peaceful, predominantly white suburb of Woodcrest in Maryland. It is strongly suggested that the boys' birth parents are deceased.
