A Raisin in the Sun Act IV: Introduction

This podcast is a compilation of short stories by students of the Q StudioLab, Eli, Kentaro, and Scarlett. These short stories are based on the fictional play A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry. Set in the mid 1900s, A Raisin in the Sun tells the story of an African American family living in Chicago dealing with conflicts within their family. They are also dealing with the tension of deciding on whether they should move to Clybourne Park, a neighborhood occupied predominantly by white people. These stories are the next act of the play. We studied the Civil Rights movement and each of these stories feature a Civil Rights event for our stories to be based on.
