question 2 of 20
what is one possible theme of a raisin in the sun?

a. people who experience injustice often give up entirely.

b. home can have a different meaning for each person.

c. people who embrace their heritage often lose their true identity.

d. being forceful often results in feelings of power and pride.

Explanation:

In "A Raisin in the Sun", different family members have varying views on home. For example, Walter sees it as a means to financial success and family stability, while Beneatha views it in terms of cultural identity and personal growth, and Mama connects it to heritage and a place of belonging. Option A is incorrect as the characters don't give up entirely in the face of injustice. Option C is wrong as embracing heritage (like Beneatha with her African heritage) enriches identity, not erases it. Option D is incorrect as forceful behavior in the play (e.g., Walter's earlier actions) leads to conflict and regret, not positive feelings of power and pride.

Answer:

B. Home can have a different meaning for each person.
