That neighborhood association are a bunch of punks themselves. They literally sent Piglet on this "goodwill" mission.

I wrote a paper once about how the preference towards boys still shows up in Younger family politics. Walter is struggling and deserves some sympathy, yes, but at the same time, what he did was foolish and self-motivated.

That should say "back of an alley." Typos still want to mess with me here, apparently.

Beneatha has a reputation for being flighty, but I don't believe for a second that she would have squandered the money like that. There's still some latent sexism that drives the way that Lena's expectations for Walter and Beneatha vary.

Walter scouring the place for Mr. Linder's card while Beneatha heckles him is one of my favorite scenes. #TCMParty #ARaisinInTheSun

Every time I see this film I can’t believe it didn’t receive a single Oscar nomination. Every performance was deserving. #ARaisinintheSun #TCMParty

I hope that Willie messed with the right wrong person and got his due in the back of an somewhere. What a cruel and nasty thing to do absconding with someone's dreams. Horrid.

Oh, and Sidney should have won an Oscar. This (along with Virgil Tibbs) is his best performance on film, period. That is all.
5/5

And the way in which he delivers those lines really throws the audacity and the disrespect of the "welcoming committee" right back in their faces. I encourage everyone to really read those words and sit with their power.

Willie's refusal to take the money is not just his moment to stand up as a man: It's a repudiation of the idea that Black Americans do not have the right to the same benefits and freedom as everyone else. We, too, sing America.

Lorraine Hansberry was intentional with those lines. She wanted to make a statement about how Black Americans were and are just as invested in the American story as anyone else (and frankly, longer than most.)

There's a line in A RAISIN IN THE SUN's iconic climax that has always resonated with me. Walter Lee grabs Travis, turns to Mr. Lindner & says: "This is my son. And he makes the sixth generation of my family in this country."

Yes! That paradox of “SO much better off, and still really, really not equal.” One of the reasons I stayed in Chicago is that the place wears its love of its own history on its sleeve, and every year, that history obsession becomes broader & more inclusive. #ARaisinInTheSun #tcmparty
