Article vs. Raisin in the Sun

The news article is connected to the play because it talks about :
1.Education
2.Poverty
3.Race

This Article helped me understand better..
Education most time makes people less value then others also it puts people aside.

Poverty in a way where they live in apartments also have to share restrooms with others since they could burly afford an sustainable home for the younger family.

Race when mama tells the family they are moving to a new community.Specially since they are going to be the first African American Family it leads to several consequences.
