In the poem, Hughes raises and explores a question: What happens to a dream deferred? Throughout the poem, Hughes contemplates potential responses to this question, all of them posed rhetorically to his audience. In the play that follows this epigraph, the four central members of the Younger family, Walter, Ruth, Lena, and Beneatha, each see their respective dream(s) confront personal, familial, and societal forces that threaten deferral. Ultimately, the journey forced upon each character\u2019s dream is unique and speaks to the myriad of ways to fulfill Hughes\u2019 interrogation.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 17.3px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; font-size: 17.33px; cursor: auto;\">\u201cHarlem\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">By Langston Hughes<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">What happens to a dream deferred?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Does it dry up<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;like a raisin in the sun?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Or fester like a sore\u00e2\u20ac\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;And then run?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Does it stink like rotten meat?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Or crust and sugar over\u00e2\u20ac\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;like a syrupy sweet?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Maybe it just sags<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;like a heavy load.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">Or does it explode?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">Prompt<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/span><br style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 13.3px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">Using evidence from <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">at least two<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\"> characters in <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">A Raisin In the Sun, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">answer Hughes\u2019 question.<\/span><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 13.3px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">In your answer:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"cursor: auto;\">\n<li style=\"margin: 0px 0px 13.3px; font-size: 23px; line-height: normal; cursor: auto;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto;\"><\/span><span style=\"cursor: auto;\">Explain how the characters you choose represent specific lines from Hughes\u2019 poem.
