From our studios in new york city, this is charlie rose. Lorraine hansberrys a raisin in the sun made history, the first play by an africanamerican woman to be produced on broadway. The story followed the hopes and dreams of the younger family on the south side of chicago. It anticipated the changes of the civil rights struggle, and offered a depiction of the lives of black americans that was more complex than anything else on stage. The play returns to its original theater in a new production nominated for five tony awards. Denzel washington stars as walter lee younger. Sophie okonedo plays his wife. And Latanya Richardson jackson plays lena younger, the family matriarch. I am very pleased to have them at this table, to talk about a remarkable play and what it means then, when she wrote it, and today. Welcome. Tell me what brought you back to this play at this time.

Its not the right thing for folks out there still looking for work. Our economy right now is headed in the right direction. And it will stay that way as long as there arent any more selfinflicted wounds coming out of washington. This selfinflicted wound would include massive cuts to virtually every government program.

Running those states at those times were not interested in making it fairly easy for a legitimate voter to get to the booth. Consistent with the federal constitution, the government should do what it can to make voting a right not an obstacle course. Thats hardball for now. Thanks for being with us. Politicsnation with al sharpton starts right now. Thanks, chris. And thanks to you for tuning in. Im live in los angeles. Tonights lead. Fighting for fairness. President obama threw down the gauntlet to republicans today demanding they move quickly to stop devastating budget cuts that could damage the economy and throw hundreds of thousands of people out of work. These are automatic cuts the congress agreed to. And theyre going to go into effect in three weeks unless lawmakers act now. The president is fighting the republicans cut, cut, cut obsession. We cant just cut our way to prosperity. Deep cuts to things like education and training, energy and National Security will cost us jobs. And
