Oh. My. God.

I can’t remember the details of how my 11th grade English teacher taught A Raisin in the Sun to her class of white students, but it was not like that. All I can remember specifically is the play itself, and feeling profoundly moved by it.

I’m angry and sorry you had to sit through that judgmental devaluing.
