About this Quote

This quote by Zora Neale Hurston speaks with the danger of having a large group of individuals within a country who are dissatisfied with the current state of affairs. This can be a significant source of instability and unrest, as these individuals may be most likely to take part in activities that could interfere with the peace and order of the country. This might consist of protests, civil disobedience, or perhaps violence. It is essential for a nation to guarantee that its residents are content and that their grievances are addressed in order to maintain a steady and safe environment. If a country stops working to do this, it might be left vulnerable to internal and external risks.
