A Raisin in the Sun

Mr. Lindner is the only white character in the play. He comes off as a polite man who thinks blacks and whites would get along if they only talked with each other. His message seems positive but it turns out, her is only pedaling a bribe. The implication of his friendly words is that the Youngers take the "free" money and buy their house somewhere else. He represents their new white neighbours who want to keep their community white.
