Classic Book Discussion: "A Raisin in the Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry

2017-Feb-22 @ 19:00 - 20:00

In Irondequoit Public Library is a discussion of A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry.

Lorraine Hansberry's award-winning drama about the hopes and aspirations of a struggling, working-class family living on the South Side of Chicago connected profoundly with the psyche of black America—and changed American theater forever. The play's title comes from a line in Langston Hughes's poem "Harlem," which warns that a dream deferred might "dry up/like a raisin in the sun."
