Is money not life or is it life?A Raisin in the Sun Lorraine Hansberry wrote a play that Commented [1]: Underline title and revise sentence.
Maybe "Lorraine Hansberry wrote a play, A Raisin in
the Sun, that involves reasons why money is not life."
involve reasons why money is not life.Money is not life because once, it was freedom but now

it’s money.

My claim is true because people should have the freedom to have what they want instead

of paying the price.According to the text, Mama says, “oh so now it’s life,money is life,once

upon a time freedom used to be life but now it’s money”. “Life was freedom but now it

money.No don’t you start child It’s to early in the morning to be talking about money it ain’t

christin.This means that god should come before you start talking about money.

Another reason is why money is not life.According the text, “No don’t you start child It’s

to early in the morning to be talking about money it ain’t christin”.This means that you

shouldn’t talk about money in morning because it just not godly.Also “You must not dislike

people because their well off honey,why not it make just make sense as disliking people

because their are poor, and lot of people do that.”This means that you hate people because it

makes an explanation of disliking the person because their poor.

People might disagree with this claim because people think that money is life. “No it was

always about money mama,we just didn’t know it.]For example money was everything people

didn’t know it.My claim is impotant than my counterclaim money is not life and people should
care more about their family than money. “If it wasn’t for you all I would put that money away

or give it to the church.”My claim is more relevant because money isn’t life because it use to be

all about slavery.

Money is not life because once it was freedom but now it money.My claim is true because

you see poor people on the street but no one give them any money.
