topic raisin in the sun

1. My choice of play is “A raisin in the sun” and I selected the story because I find it to be interesting and it talks about racial prejudice among the African Americans and other themes which are intriguing to me.

2. The theme which I examined in the story is racial discrimination. The book talks about the racial discrimination when it came to the colored people with regard to the education systems, housing, and employment and even in the Supreme Court. The book says, “That is just what is wrong with the colored women in this world . . . Don’t understand about building their men up and making feel like they somebody. Like they can do something” (Hansberry).

3. The story talks about how Lena Younger and her family struggled to have equal rights like the white people. This family in an attempt to challenge the racial discrimination and prejudices bought a house in a white dominated neighborhood but various conflicts arise from that decision. When they moved into the neighborhood the whites in the area rejected their presence there and this shows that the blacks did not have the right and freedom to live anywhere even when they had the finances to pay for it.
