I love the comic strip, but have not seen the show. The comic is definitely lampooning all the negative parts of african american culture. The writer is of the same school of thought as Bill Cosby. He thinks that black people should spend more time getting an education and/or a job, and less time blaming white people for all their problems. My wife, who is quite conservative, had trouble getting past the angry kids at first. She thought it was a hate whitey comic. But I kept showing her the really funny strips, and she got into it, and now it's one of her favorites.
