Dashed Dreams: A Study of 'A Raisin in the Sun'

Have you ever had a dream of fame or money or talent? What if that dream never came true or you just can't achieve it, Do you just forget about it or does it change and become something else.
The Raisin in the sun is a book about a black family in a time of heavy racism in America and their daily lives in this time period. In this book there are 3 characters that all had dreams but just didn't seem to go there way in the end. Walter, Beneatha and Asagi these three people had a dream but one of them messed it up for the other two. It is just like a domino effect.

Walter Lee Younger is a man in his 30’s and part of the family his wife is ruth and his sister is beneatha. Walter always wanted the best for his family and after his father's death he thought he could make his dream come true. He wanted to open a liquor store with the money from his father's death. Ten thousand dollars from the insurance money. Walter proposed this idea and his family including his mother thought is was a horrible idea for him to do. When his mom used the money to buy the new house Walter thought his dream was over until his money gave him what was left for beneatha for her college to put into the bank he never went. And gave the money to a friend to get the store open but the man took all the money. All that

He goes to school with beneatha and is in what seems to be in love with her. He also says to her “Then isn’t there something wrong in a house – in a world! – where all dreams, good or bad, must depend on the death of a man? I never thought to see you like this, Alaiyo.” because of how beneatha was acting and how upset she was. Asagai is a very smart man, but when he asks her to go to africa with him i think he was a bit shot down and that was his dream to be with beneatha but walter lost the money and that made beneatha upset so when asagai asked her i think he didn't get the response he was hoping
