20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Expression

This image was created from a quote from "A Raisin in the Sun" by Lorraine Hansberry. Beneatha's family felt like she wasn't mastering any crafts and they felt like she wasn't going to finish anything or become successful. And Beneatha stated, she wanted to express herself. Which is a true statement for many people. People can wear many hats/doing various things in life. They don't have to be confined to one thing. If they are, how will they be able to grow as a person?
