About Huey Freeman
Huey R. Freeman 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. 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 is named after Huey P. Newton, one of the co-founders and leaders of the Black Panther Party, and is voiced by Regina King. In the original pilot, he was voiced by singer Alicia Keys.
