Walter Lee Younger American Dream

Walter Lee Younger, more of a self-centered man about dreaming to own a business. Walter throughout the story stuck with the same dream and tried his best, but still, fate did not help him. A dream does not come true until one works hard for it. Walter in his situation did not plan ahead yet put all his hopes on the money. He was more likely similar to a line described by the poet “Deferred Dreams” by Langston Hughes, like a person who was running from his responsibility happening to “ fester like a sore--and then run…” Due to his lack of attention and lack of hard work he was unsuccessful with his plans for himself and his family’s future.
