These answers do not fully reflect the powerful poetry used to reflect his feelings. For example, Farm workers are not agricultural implements to be used like beasts of burden and discarded.
His anger stems from what he sees (growers misused their control; the workers were many they growers were few). His anger stems from what he experiences (restaurants were a closed door for him. The latest movies were forbidden territory). His anger grew from the injustice he saw his people suffer. There was no fairness in the way they were treated. His anger is fueled by watching those he loved be reduced to powerlessness and prejudice against those around him.

I suppose it depends on what the ritual is. In most Religions, if a person is performing (what I think is Ritual), and they believe it wholeheartedly, it is never going to get old. I imagine it depends on the Religion & Ritual.
Other sorts of “rituals” like how many times you brush your bottom and top teeth could become more like “obsessive compulsive disorder”. Some people I know treat their IPhone like a sort of “ritualistic” activity, looking and checking without any real need.
It will depend upon what the Ritual is, and what it is used in or for.
