In this paper, Aakash Sharma offers a comprehensive analysis of Lorraine Hansberry’s famous drama, with particular regard to the portrayal of black people’s lives at the cusp of desegregation in America.

The paper also posits that the representation of these themes by Hansberry gives an accurate representation of the Black community’s challenges and also singles out systemic racism and socio-economic oppression the Blacks had to endure.
