Select two characters in A Raisin in the Sun, by Lorraine Hansberry, and compare or contrast them based on some of their primary character traits. For example, whereas Lena Younger (the mother) has life experience, her daughter (Beneatha) lacks that experience.

Select a character in A Raisin in the Sun, by Lorraine Hansberry, and compare that character to a well-known individual (living or deceased) based on similar personality traits that the two of them share. Walter hopes to pursue his business dreams, just as well-known American inventor Thomas Alva Edison followed his.
Write an essay of at least three pages but no more than five, with the works cited page as the fourth or fifth page. Include these sections within your essay:
Must Have!!!
an introduction with a thesis statement
at least 2 developmental (body) paragraphs
a conclusion
an MLA Works Cited page with an entry for each source from which information was borrowed and included as part of the essay (Since there are three required sources, the works cited page must have an entry for each one.)
The required sources are:
a primary source, which is a written or electronic version of the drama
an article from a database to which the Valencia College library subscribes (This database is considered a secondary source, and I recommend the eBook Collection database by Gale Publishers.)
at least one other credible secondary source of your choice (a book with information about the play, a credible website, another database article, a biography of a well-known individual, etc.)
You may use additional sources in addition to the required ones.
