Park shined light on the innumerable obstacles he faced as a Lost Boy. The Lost Boys are the thousands of young men who dared to make the journey to safety and refuge in Ethiopia by foot. Salva, only eleven years old when the war began in 1983 between the Muslim Arab north and the non-Muslim and non-Arab south, had to survive the rigorous environment. Survival factors like determination and will, motivation, persistence, and endurance made it possible to get through the many challenges.

In the beginning of his journey he was a regular school boy who enjoyed his life and cared a lot about his family. “ His eyes kept flicking toward the window, through which he could see the road.

But it seemed they had all forgotten that, for Salva now had to beg for scraps, which were given grudgingly.”(Park After his uncle's death it was hard for him to move on, and was struggling to keep walking. “One step at a time… one day at a time. Just today-just this day to get through… Salva told himself this every day. He told the boys in the group, too. And one day at a time, the group made its way to Kenya.”(Park 87) Near the end of the middle he learned to be a leader just like his uncle and lead more than twelve hundred boys safely to the refugee camp. In the end of his journey he has persevered through his challenges and wants to give back to others. “ As of spring 2014, Salva Dut’s nonprofit organization Water for South Sudan has drilled more than 250 wells in southern Sudan for Dinka and Nuer communities, supplying fresh water for hundreds of thousands of people.”(Park 120) After all of his journey he has learned to become a leader and help all types of people, thinking about others before himself, becoming more

In the play “A Raisin in the Sun” written by Lorraine Hansberry, she is able to take us to place to see what it was like for an African American family to survive in the mid-twentieth century. The play details how the main characters are going through an evolving social and economic position, as well as the evolving gender roles. Hansberry uses the characterization of Beneatha, Ruth, and Walter in order to show the expectations and assigned gender roles for the characters in the story. In short, Beneatha is depicted as a woman who is challenging gender norms and expectations upheld by her family, whereas Ruth is seen as an example of a submissive housewife fulfilling her expected duties.

In Anthony Winkler's, The Duppy, sex at any time is depicted as being morally right and expected by women and in a way the characters main source of joy and happiness. This depiction of sex challenges a particular way of thinking because, the thought of sex in heaven challenges gender roles, because in heaven the woman are the ones who control the sexual world. The thought of sex in heaven is a difficult concept to grasp when it comes to a religious sense. Circumstances such as heaven is religious ideal and men usually are the typical gender that sparks the whole idea, make it challenging when looking at alternative ways of thinking.

Sudan in different time periods, and my favorite story was Salva’s. In these few pages that we have read about our amazing novel we can easily notice how plot is changing the main character’s life in a few days, due to many plot events. Salva Dut is the main character of the novel, his father was a successful man in his village because he owned many head of cattle and he was the judge of the village (a very respectful position). He has many brothers and one mom too. Many plot events changed his way of living in a very few time, the shooting near the school and the group leaving him behind in the barn are just a few examples. The most interesting fact

In A Raisin in the Sun, by Lorraine Hansberry, the Younger family is trying to achieve the American Dream, which is “the ideals of freedom, equality, and opportunity traditionally held to be available to every American”(cite dictionary.com). The Youngers are a black family living in a poor part of Chicago. They inherit ten thousand dollars because Mama’s husband died. Mama is the matriarch of the Younger family. Each family member has their own idea about how to use this money to fulfill their dreams, and the play uses the decisions of the family members and other characters to show the reader that people’s actions are not always motivated by what they appear to be. Mama wants to use the money to buy a house in a white neighborhood, because she thinks it is a better environment for her family than their current living conditions and will benefit her family. Although there are a number of people in A Raisin in the Sun who appear too want to help the Younger family, Mama shows through her decision to buy the house that she is the only person that is looking out for the best interests of her family.
