Huey Freeman
10-year-old Huey and his little brother Riley have at least one thing in common: they’re both angry young black men stuck in the suburbs.
But instead of causing mayhem, Huey’s most powerful weapons are his disapproving glance and biting commentary. A future revolutionary, he’s a present-day pessimist and intellectual terrorist.
Huey attends J. Edgar Hoover Elementary School in lily-white Woodcrest. He’s not afraid to point out rampant hypocrisy, racism or destructive behavior, which leads to plenty of awkward moments, particularly when white people are involved.
He’ll change the world someday. But it’s hard to fight the power when you can’t even drive.
