Join me and the ever-faithful, Raina as we discuss "A Raisin in the Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry. This is a 1959 play that was also made into a movie in 1961. "A Raisin in the Sun" is often taught in high schools. So why is it banned and where? Let's get to it!

I will begin working soon on a series called, "The Master Files: Beyond Breast Cancer". The series will consist of several short videos on such topics as "What to Know About Your Breast Cancer", "What About Nutrition?" "How to Prepare for Breast Cancer Surgery", "Who Will Be On My Treatment Team?", "What Can I Expect Post-Operatively?" "What to Buy as a Gift for Someone with Breast Cancer" and much more. I hope you never have to refer to any of these videos - for yourself or a loved one - but if you do, they are here for you!
