Brutally honest but still evenhanded, \u003ci\u003eCandorville\u003c\/i\u003e takes on some of society's toughest issues, giving readers something to think about--as well as smirks, chuckles, and guffaws. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAnother Stereotype Bites the Dust\u003c\/i\u003e is a collection of creator Darrin Bell's \u003ci\u003eCandorville\u003c\/i\u003e cartoon strip. In this thought-provoking strip Bell uses a diverse group of friends to paint a real yet humorous portrait of inner-city America. An educated underachiever, Lemont Brown is an aspiring writer. Socially conscious, he wants to work at changing the world and infusing it with wisdom and justice--if only he could pay his rent. Lemont's childhood friend Susan Garcia is a book-smart and street savvy Mexican-American woman who won't let bigotry or any glass ceiling keep her down. And Lemont's friend Clyde (aka C-Dog) is a streetwise thug and undiscovered rapper who'd rather mooch off his mother than get a job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAnother Stereotype Bites the Dust\u003c\/i\u003e deals with some tough issues--poverty, homelessness, racism, and personal responsibility--with knowing irony and incisive satire. Bell uses edgy dialogue and modern situations to jab everything from political correctness to political spinning, from political hindsight to office politics, making it a hit with the socially aware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Darrin Bell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0740760416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780740760419\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrews McMeel Publishing, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 8.48w x 0.38d","brand":"Darrin Bell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988231323903,"sku":"9780740760419","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ce005cec-394a-4f37-8df5-de34203f2c34.jpg?v=1683293355","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/another-stereotype-bites-the-dust-darrin-bell-9780740760419","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
