Big Risks

To be successful, you must take big risks. This image, taken from New Life Baptist Church, represents someone taking abig risk. By climbing the mountain, the climber is risking something big, his life. When he reaches the top of the mountain though, he will feel very successful. Doing daring things are good example of taking a big risk to be successful.

This statement relates to Raisin in the Sun when Mama buys the Clybourne house. She takes a rather large risk by purchasing a house in a white community. Black people were looked down upon during that era and it was not seen as a good idea by some to surround her family by rich, white families. In her heart though, Mama knew that her family would work to be successful. They were all willing to hold onto their pride, work together, and try to be successful in their new siciety.
