The members of the DuBois family — Tom (husband), Sarah (wife), and Jazmine (daughter) — are fictional characters and featured players in Aaron McGruder's Boondocks comic strip and animated TV series.

Thomas Lancaster DuBois, a mild-mannered rich black man, is an assistant district attorney and close friend of Robert Freeman.

The fear developed to such a degree that Tom refused to participate in even the slightest of legal infractions, even those that are not punishable by a prison sentence, as a youth and throughout adulthood.

His job as a prosecuting attorney is ironic: He essentially sends other people, mostly black men, to the fate he himself most fears, and he seems to feel guilty about it.

Tom seemingly conquers his fear after beating the would-be rapist unconscious with a bar of soap, after he slipped and fell on his back, and mentions to Sarah that he plans on becoming a public defender in order to save young men from being violated in prison.

Tom's love for his political ideologies are marked by an incident where he kidnaps Ralph Nader during the 2004 presidential election, who he believes is a threat that could stunt the Democratic vote.

Sarah is revealed to be much more frisky and lowkey than Tom, which leads to strains on their relationship, such as when he refused to lighten up and have a little extra wine on their anniversary, due to his prison rape phobia.

It is hinted that she is somewhat sexually frustrated,[7] which is a possible reason why she often fantasizes about strong, successful black men like Barack Obama[8] and Usher, but still shows much love and concern for her husband.

When Jazmine starts a lemonade stand in "The Block Is Hot" and later gets exploited by Ed Wuncler Sr., Huey rallies up protesters in hopes to liberate her.
