A Raisin in the sun
A Raisin in the Sun The story of A RAISIN IN THE SUN about a blackfamily stuggling through family and economic hardships. The story endedas the head of the family Walter took control, became a family man, andrejected an offer from a white businessman to stay out of a whiteneighborhood and to stay with all blacks. This offer disgusted theYounger family and hurt their black pride. I would like in my own wordsto continue this story as I see it fit to occur. Three changes I wouldmake would be is Walter is forced to take action against segregation, thegrandmother passing away, and how the blacks finally became accepted andbegan to enjoy and be proud of where they live. As the Younger familymoves themselves into a white suburban neighborghood the whites in thecommunity are upset that they have come to be with them. Their directneighbors who have a son that is Travis's age no longer lets her son playwith Travis and he become hurt and confused. Walter has to explain that
The rest of the Younger family tries to follow in the foot steps of thelittle boy. Down the road another black family moves in andkeeps the Youngers company and gives them some one to relate with. The hardships the Younger familyhave been through helped very much to bring the family together and too make their love for each other more than it was at the beginning of thebook. After the eventual calmingdown of the community and the lowering of racial tensions of the blacksagainst the whites, grandma Ruth who paid her own $10,000 for the housethey live in dies in her sleep, but in the hapiness of knowing her familycan get along by themselves. He goes over and at first tries his best to stay calm overthe situation. As Beneatha is off atschool Travis brings home a white friend one Friday afternoon to playwith him. that are white beleive that they are better then those whoare black. Asthree or four more blacks gradually move into the neighborhood thecommunity becomes more black-white oriented and they finally get alongtogether and are able to share their lives in equality. I feel that the whites inthe community would eventually become more and more friendly with theblacks and more comfortable with them. Thus bringing the whites, even those who weren'tbefore, totally against the Younger family. The Younger family is at first very upsetand sad because of the death, but they relize that she is where she really wants to be, with her husband. Walter slowly forgives the whites who slowly change theirattitudes towards them. This brings an upraw amongst the Youngers and theentire community. Walter has a private talk withehr and convinces her that it would be the best for her future, and thatshe would regret her decision if she didn't go. The white father then says, "Listen, if I ever see yourson with mine, I will througth that little black spoiled brat back intoyour yard.
