A Raisin in the Sun Act 3 What does Mama mean when she says Walter has come into his manhood?

Walter finally stepped up and did the right thing. Not the most profitable thing, not the most selfish thing, not the thing of the moment, but he chose the thing that was best for his whole family and he put his selfish dreams aside. He chose the long term gain.

He put his family's interest before his own.

Like in Spiderman 2. Aunt May: ""Sometimes, to do what's right, we have to be steady and give up the thing we want the most."

That's something most of us have to decide every day.

Walter (Sean Combs), with the help of his mom (Felicia Rashad) finally "saw the sky" and became immovable for what was right.

To the receiver of this opinion, pardon my ineloquence (if that's a word), I hope I have written exactly what I mean.

I read a post where someone was asking "Why does Diddy look like a 2 year old in

this production." Probably because that's the part he was playing. He only became the giant he always wanted to be at the end fo the movie.

With that in mind, he delivered an outstanding performance.
