Answer:

The word that is NOT a transitional word or phrase is Portrays.

Explanation:

<u>Transitional words</u> are used to link other words, phrases or sentences in a way that coherent relationships are built within the text and the reader can smoothly progress from one idea to the next one. Some examples of transitional words are <em>moreover, as a matter of fact, such as, likewise, </em><em>unlike, between, in contrast</em><em>,</em> etc. On the other hand, portrays is a content word that carries meaning. Therefore, <u>portrays </u><u>is the right answer.</u>

Does Hansberry succeed in creating real people rather than racial stereotypes?what does she teach us about the American dream fo
AnnyKZ [126]

Hansberry manages to create real characters that did not match the racial stereotypes of the time. With that, she showed that to achieve the American dream, black people had to face many tensions both with the white community and with the black community.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Lorraine Hansberry was a black American writer who was able to observe how the black community, its afflictions, and its struggles were represented in literature, film, and theater.
  • This representation was full of stereotypes, incorrect and prejudiced information.
  • She changed all that when she wrote "A Raisin in the Sun."

That's because in "A Raisin in the Sun" she put black characters as protagonists, and presented real characteristics that portray black people in society in a realistic and non-stereotyped way.

She showed how the American dream was difficult for black people, due to conflicts with white society and conflicts even within the black community.
