Description

The Washington Post called Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun “one of a handful of great American plays—it belongs in the inner circle, along with Death of a Salesman, Long Day’s Journey Into Night, and The Glass Menagerie.” Join us as we discuss A Raisin in the Sun and the remarkable life and work of its author with guest Dr. Soyica Diggs Colbert, whose critically-lauded new biography Radical Vision uncovers key details about Hansberry’s activism and contextualizes her importance within the Black radical movement. For episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.com Follow us on instagram @lostladiesoflit.
