In things fall apart , what did Achebe mean when he said “ if you don’t like someone’s story write your own” ?

I never read this book, but if Mr. X said it, I think I would still understand; rather than waste your time complaining about what someone else did, then show the World what YOU can do, instead.

Explanation:

the author is showing that it is the insatisfaction of basic needs that brings about the protests such as the strikes.if workers do not earn enough to buy food and feed their families and themselves in order to continue working, what is the use of working? besides, another message from the author is that of the owners of factories should be worried about ensuring their furure by having a second and third generation of workers in their industries.if they do not hear the workers demands, they will not have any more workers to make their pockets full.
