Read the passage from A Raisin in the Sun.

[LINDNER:] But you've got to admit that a man, right or wrong, has the right to want to have the neighborhood he lives in a certain kind of way. And at the moment the overwhelming majority of our people out there feel that people get along better, take more of a common interest in the life of the community, when they share a common background.

Answer:

disdainful and demeaning

Step-by-step explanation:

From the passage of Raisin in the Sun, Lindner uses the phrase "in a certain kind of way" in a disdainful and demeaning tone to narrate how an adult male has the right to want the neighborhood he wants to live in whether he's "right or wrong" which insinuates that Lindner is less than impressed.
