Rasin in the Sun Two Influences of the Day

Two Influences of the Day Through the play " Raisin in the Sun, " Beneatha Younger is exposed to two men who she both has an interest in. This being Joseph Asagai and George Murchison.

Both men have different views of their world but both are valid influences on Beneatha.
