Lorraine Hansberry, best known for her play "A Raisin in the Sun," was influenced by Malcolm X's advocacy for Black empowerment and civil rights. His emphasis on self-determination and cultural identity resonated with her own themes of racial pride and social justice. Although Hansberry's work predates some of Malcolm X's most influential moments, she appreciated his unapologetic stance on issues affecting African Americans and sought to address similar themes of inequality and systemic oppression in her writing. Their shared commitment to challenging societal norms and promoting Black dignity reflects a broader dialogue within the Civil Rights Movement.
