My husband always said being any kind of a servant wasn't fit for a man to have to be. He always said a man's hands was made to make things, or to turn the earth with - not to drive nobody's car for ‘em - or - carry they slop jars.

But he sure loved his children. Always wanted them to have something - be something. Thats where Brother gets all these notions, I reckon.”]]> 2021-03-30 21:46:47 UTC https://padlet.com/gnicholson12/hwxbk46b2i7j5uyy/wish/1369797762 gnicholson12 https://padlet.com/gnicholson12/hwxbk46b2i7j5uyy/wish/1369799690 If they were to take the money and not buy the house in Clybourne Park; how would have things turned out? What do you think they would have done with the money instead?

Do you think that what the Youngers are facing happens today? Do you think people are facing the same hardships in this day in age? 

Would you have handled their situation the same? Or would you have done things differently? Why and how?

While tending to her dying plant, Mama says “ain't never gonna see spring again”. This symbolizes the families fading chances of getting out of this almost hole they have created and the world has created for them.

 Multiple allusions are spread throughout the play. One of them being when Walter says “The lion is waking,” referring to the financial status of the family. They've been given a form of financial freedom with the money. ]]> 2021-03-30 22:07:42 UTC https://padlet.com/gnicholson12/hwxbk46b2i7j5uyy/wish/1369834528
