The New York Times calls this “the play that changed American theater forever.â€� In this play, Hansberry – a pioneering, female, African-American playwright – covers issues of racism, discrimination, generational clashes, civil rights, and the women’s movement through the divergent dreams and conflicts within three generations of the Younger family. The Younger family’s heroic struggle to retain dignity in a harsh and changing world is a searing and timeless document of hope and inspiration.
