Lorraine Handsbury is trying to explain the emotions in the "A raisin in the sun" of an ordinary African-American male in the 1940's. This character is drawn on the character of Walter and experiences severe depression and hopeless feeling. To understand the cause of this dissatisfaction, we have to reconsider the major transition, the dream it promised and why many African Americans try to migrate north. To achieve freedom from racial injustice and poverty is a major factor that encourages blacks to abandon the south.
