“Son—I come from five generations of people who was slaves and sharecroppers—but ain’t nobody in my family never let nobody pay ’em no money that was a way of telling us we wasn’t fit to walk the earth.

📚 A Raisin in the Sun
by Lorraine Hansberry
⠀
This book hints on topics of assimilation, pride, racism, and is so uplifting. Rediscovering #ARaisinInTheSun almost twenty years since that required reading list has me appreciating it anew! It is still relevant today! Besides it’s such a quick read! Have you given it another read?
