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.
