I think that overall, "A Raisin in the Sun" was a pretty good play. My initial prediction, that Walter and Ruth were going to split up, didn�t happen. I thought that after Ruth got pregnant, that when Walter found out, he would get really mad and I thought they were going to split up. The final message that I got from this play was that if you stick with your dreams, you most likely will accomplish it. The Youngers wanted to move to Clybourne Park, which is an all white neighborhood. Karl Lidner, a member of the �welcoming committee,� offered them money so they wouldn�t move there. Walter called him up and he told him to come over. Then Walter told him that they wanted to move there, and he told him to get out of their house. I believe that if you want to accomplish something, you have to work very hard at it and you can�t give up.
