摘要：Moving behind the confines of the race has been the continuous efforts of African - Americans so as to reveal and confirm their true humanity and abilities to white race as well as their own race. African - Americans, Dubois posited, are shut out of the white America, inhabiting behind a vast veil which creates a deep division between the races. Veil is made of the fabric of racism interwoven thread by thread and imposed by white world. It is thrown discourteously and forcibly to the African - Americans whom their distorted images are imposed on them and their true humanity and identity are hidden behind the veil. This study overtakes to present how Loraine Hansberry , in her f irst and the most outstanding drama, A Raisin in the Sun examines the world within the veil. S he demonstrated that Dubo i sian metaphoric veil is operating in the racist American society so that not only African - Americans are segregated physically and psych ologically from the rest of the world but also are inflicted with obscurity of vision that are neither able to see themselves clearly nor be seen truly. On the other hand, it presents how the veil provides blacks with the second sight to observe and compre hend the racist nature of whites which is hidden and incomprehensible for them.
