The Freemans are back for Season 3
After two years of waiting, The Boondocks returns to Adult Swim in bold fashion. It’s A Black President, Huey Freeman takes a unique look at how each of the characters is affected by the 2008 Presidential Election. This episode could set up a serious debate in the near future for all communities. The episode follows real-life German filmmaker Werner Herzog as he documents the historic 2008 Presidential Election to its aftermath.
