PG-13. The plot of "A Raisin in the Sun" centers on the Younger family, a Black family living in Chicago in the 1950s. Walter Younger dreams of owning his own business, a liquor store, and the independence that comes with being self-employed. His mother (Mama) gives him a portion of the life insurance payment from her deceased husband to invest in the store as well as additional money to set aside for Beneatha (Walter's sister) to go to medical school. Mama puts the remainder of the money down on a house in a white neighborhood. The family is approached by a man (Mr. Lindner) from the white neighborhood who tries to persuade them not to move into the neighborhood by offering them even more money than Mama's down payment, but the family rebuffs him. Afterwards, it is revealed that Walter has given all of the money to his prospective business partner who stole it and left town. Walter invites Lindner back to the apartment intending to accept his offer, but Walter's pride won't let him and he turns Linder away once more. As the play closes, the family moves out of the apartment.
