Quote/Analysis :
"Tessie Hutchinson was in the center of a cleared space by now, and she held her hands out desperately as the villagers moved in on her. "It isn't fair," she said. A stone hit her on the side of the head. Old Man Warner was saying, "Come on, come on, everyone." Steve Adams was in the front of the crowd of villagers, with Mrs. Graves beside him."(Jackson 7).
This is the way the community is trying to survive so that there is enough food for everyone. This power should be given to the community because time has changed the people are following old traditions that are causing murders in there community.
