A character comes to life through a mix of details called characterization. Watch this video to learn more about how an author builds a character in a text and then apply your knowledge to a character in A Raisin in the Sun.
After learning more about characterization, select one character from A Raisin in the Sun – Walter, Mama, Ruth, or Beneatha – and write a paragraph describing them. Consider both direct and indirect characterization and whether they are a protagonist or antagonist.
