Beneatha Younger


Beneatha Younger is twenty years old. Beneatha has big dreams but is also very young at heart. Beneath dream is to become a doctor but changes her mind very often. Beneatha states she is in search of herself. She is young and educated and her main objective in the beginning of the play is to become a doctor, her objective often shifts from finding herself to becoming a doctor. Bennie doesn’t believe in God and tells her mother that things are accomplished by men and not by God. Bennie has two men in her life, George and Asangai. She really cares about Asangai and feels like she is just having fun with George because he takes her to nice places. Beneatha is not as pretty as her sister in-law, but has something that makes her attractive. Bennie is also very slender and resembles her brother. I would cast Nia Long because of her physical appearance and the outspoken roles she has played.
