The mask, which represents the false emotions a person might "wear" in front of other people, both smiles and lies—which indicates that the outward appearance of the mask does not match the true emotions that are beneath it. In other words, the people who wear this mask aren't smiling, and aren't happy.

Answer:

It is difficult to understand other people because they may hide their emotions to avoid being criticized or maltreated.

The poem says “We wear the mask that grins and lies, it hides our cheeks and shades our eyes”

This shows their treatment in a white society.
