She Says She Won't Marry George Because It's Shallow To Marry Someone Just For Wealth - And He's Not Really Her Type. She Says George's Family Wouldn't Like It Anyway. She Doesn't Seem To Really Like George That Much.

A 1959 play by Lorraine Hansberry. The title comes from the poem "Harlem" (also known as "A Dream Deferred") by Langston Hughes. The story tells of a black family's experiences in the Washington Park Subdivision of Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood as they attempt to "better" themselves with an insurance payout following the death of the father.
