After reading the text and viewing the documentary, one of the similarities of issues discussed during The Harlem Renaissance and The Lottery are people wanting a better life. People moved to Harlem for a chance at a better life than what they had previously lived in the south. African-Americans created music, art, and literature that made people across the world to notice.
The parents in the documentary wanted their children to have a chance at a better education. Therefore wanted their child to attend a charter school, with more students than available spots a lottery has to occur. The students in the regular school were not reading at grade level, and children who were enrolled at the charter school learned better than older students.
