Boondocks cuts Rosa Park Jokes
With the recent death of Rosa Parks, The Boondocks television show had to make some last minute changes.
But Parks won’t be referred to in the Cartoon Network’s “The Boondocks,” which will be part of the “Adult Swim” block.
In light of her passing, humorous references to Parks have been deleted from the TV version of the edgy comic strip, according to a Cartoon Network spokesperson.
