Question

2. Who is the hero of the story in A Raisin in the Sun? Why?

Answer 1

I would have to say Walter ( or Mama )

Step-by-step explanation:

I say Walter because throughout the whole play we watch him struggle. We watch him struggle with his desire to have money and become rich. But at the end of the play we see that Walter realizes that sometimes dreams just don't come true (or they are really hard to achieve) and he finally did something that wasn't self centered around himself. He told Mr. Lindner that they wanted to move into the house and that they did not want to accept his offer. Mama can also be a hero because she is what hold the family together but I really believe it's supposed to be Walter.

Hope this helped!

Step-by-step explanation:

Walter

Walter and Mama are the most likely characters to be considered as the main figures of the play because the decisions that they make can be argued to be the most central to the main conflict of the the play. Walter and Mama are the ones who decide if the family will stay or move into a new house.
