struggle. ... Raisin).
Although, Beneatha decided that she was tired of the struggle, tired of deluding
herself with an unworkable vision, tired of having to fight against the unchangeable facts
of life a view she might have kept, as many have. Asagai struggle to achieve own view of
the future was the real essence of life. ... The knowledge
that something is wrong, the conviction that it must be changed, and most of all determination that
the best way for it to change would be to devote yourself to the struggle. ...
