Ernie Dingo, who performed in many of Jack Davis’s plays, writes: “We are not/ Strangers/ In our own country/ Just/ Strangers/ To a European society/ And it is hard/ To be one/ When / The law/ Is the other.” Jack Davis, Noong- ah, was born in 1. Perth; his mother was taken from her tribe in Broome and reared by a white family; his father, William Davis, was also removed and reared by whites.  Davis grew up in Yarloop, in a big family of 1. According to Aboriginal poet Kevin Gilbert, Davis’s mother displayed grace and courage and a self- sacrificing spirit.  Jack had eight years of education in public schools, then worked as a mill- hand, an engine driver, boundary rider and drover which brought him into contact with the tribal people and afforded examples of the everyday treatment and victimisation of the First Australians. No Sugar received standing ovations when performed in Vancouver and Edinburgh in 1. The native must be helped in spite of himself”.

No Sugar by Jack Davis was first performed as part of the Festival of Perth in 1. Throughout the play, Davis depicts the First Australians struggling to survive in sub- human conditions on an Aboriginal Reserve in the 1. During the depression, life is particularly difficult for the Munday and Millimurra families who are controlled by apartheid- style policies.  Davis uses a variety of dramatic literary techniques to depict their struggle to survive in a hostile white culture, which treats them as “incompetent savages”. That they often speak in their own language helps Davis draw attention to their cultural differences and their alienation from mainstream culture. Those in a position of power and authority treat the First Australians with contempt and do not provide humane and decent opportunities for them to improve their sub- standard living conditions.  They believe that these “blithering stone age idiots” need to be civilised in order to take their place in mainstream, white society. The constant references to dirtiness, laziness, violence, and drunken, criminal behaviour are used by white “civilised” people to reinforce and justify their discriminatory policies. In this regard, Davis explores the consequences of the dispossession of the aborigines which culminates in a farcical depiction of the Australia Day celebrations.  These celebrations place a strong emphasis on the (main) story of the pioneers and overlook the cultural life, spirituality and history of the First Australians.

The attitude of the “uncivilised” savage is critiqued by Davis in the play from a variety of perspectives. Davis focuses our attention on: the stereotypical attitudes of the indigenous “savage” held by those in positions of power as well as by ordinary members of the white community; he shows how these views entrench prejudice; the Seargeant who is of the view that the aborigines are “best left to keep to themselves” reprimands Milly: “Your trouble, Milly, is you got three healthy men bludging off you, too lazy to work”.

Aboriginal Australians to earn a decent and honest living and to counter these stereotypes; the hypocritical attitude of those in power who exploit the First Australians in convenient and contemptible ways. Note at the beginning the reference to the 3. Moore River Native  Settlement. Real- life hardship of Indigenous Australians.

Jack Davis opens No Sugar with a scene depicting typical daily life on an Aboriginal Reserve in 1. David and Cissie Millimurra play cricket with a “home- made bat and ball”, Jimmy sharpens an axe “bush fashion” and Joe reads the newspaper “falteringly”. Life is rudimentary, difficult and makeshift but they are spirited and resourceful. Joe’s inability to read fluently reflects the First Australians’ struggle with the language of the dominant culture – a struggle that Davis would suggest dooms them to second- class status.

Although their literacy levels are poor, the government is reluctant to provide them with a decent education.  (As Mr Neal suggests when the Sister wants to start up a library, “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing” (9. Additionally, the children struggle with racism at the Northam school (note the reference to the apples.) “The ding always sells us little shrivelled ones (pies) and them wetjala kids big fat ones” (1. Furthermore, Joe’s recount of the commemoration of the pioneers as relayed in mainstream news reports captures the dominant White Australian historical narrative that marginalises the history and culture of the First Australians. Davis depicts the Millimurra family as subject to the vagaries of government decrees and its policies of segregation.  During the 1. Aboriginal Australians caught co- habiting with whites in a loving relationship were savagely punished. There were pass laws and curfews. They were restricted from being near any town after sunset on the pain of imprisonment or death.

See note on “social context”.)The First Australians hunt for food when they can, because there is no meat; they often have to “barter” for goods and food because their rations are insufficient and they are often not paid for a decent day’s work. They rely on damper and lack sufficient blankets (which contributes to Cissie’s ailment). Milly discusses the need of patching up the dilapidated tin house which is “colder than the North Pole” hoping that “that old baldy” (the rations policeman) will “cough up with some more blankets”. The language and cultural divide. Jack Davis reinforces the consequences of the government’s harsh, discriminatory policies that indirectly reduce Aboriginal Australians to criminal activities often through no fault of their own.  As Davis shows, it is difficult for them to maintain their cultural life style because of their reduced access to rivers and streams and the changing landscape. Granny cannot grind the jam and wattle seeds (a substitute for bicarb soda) for the damper. Gran remembers gathering a huge bag of seeds, but now the wetjala have cut down the trees and they are difficult to find. (1.

And yet, the ration system is insufficient. Their social welfare benefits are considerably less than that of their white counterparts. The Sergeant informs them that there will be no meat as there’s a “bloody depression” on.   Instead, “fat is classified as meat”. They can catch “roos and rabbits”. Joe finds quandongs to eat on the trip back to Northam. Consequently, and despite the Government’s predicted state of “prosperity”, Jimmy has to steal turnips to add to the rabbit stew (2.

He has been in jail four times for “drinkin, fightin’ and snowdroppin’” (taking clothes off the clothes lines).   They plan to catch a sheep from Old Skinny Martin’s farm. Injustice: treated as second- class citizens. The White man’s paternalistic attitude to the aborigines.

The official treatment of the aborigines is based on the premise that as savages they need to be “civilised” in order to become decent and worthy Australians. At the Settlement, Mr Neville spouts the typically paternalistic spin that suggests the natives should be “fortunate” for their shelter and provisions, especially during the continued depression that is plaguing the state.   The whites believe that Aboriginal Australians should live and behave “like whites”. Mr Neville condescendingly tells them that they should be “preparing yourselves here to take your place in Australian society, to live as other Australians live, to live alongside other Australians” (9.

Accordingly, they must “shoulder the responsibilities of living like the white man.

Skye - Wikipedia. Skye, or the Isle of Skye (; Scottish Gaelic: An t- Eilean Sgitheanach or Eilean a' Cheò), is the largest and northernmost of the major islands in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland.[Note 1] The island's peninsulas radiate from a mountainous centre dominated by the Cuillins, the rocky slopes of which provide some of the most dramatic mountain scenery in the country.[9][1. Although it has been suggested that the Gaelic Sgitheanach describes a winged shape there is no definitive agreement as to the name's origins. The island has been occupied since the Mesolithic period, and its history includes a time of Norse rule and a long period of domination by Clan Mac. Leod and Clan Donald. The 1. 8th century Jacobite risings led to the breaking up of the clan system and subsequent Clearances that replaced entire communities with sheep farms, some of which also involved forced emigrations to distant lands.

Resident numbers declined from over 2. Blood Moon Full Movie Online Free. Skye's population increased by 4 per cent between 1. About a third of the residents were Gaelic speakers in 2. The main industries are tourism, agriculture, fishing and forestry. Skye is part of the Highland Council local government area. The island's largest settlement is Portree, known for its picturesque harbour.[1. There are links to various nearby islands by ferry and, since 1.

The climate is mild, wet and windy. The abundant wildlife includes the golden eagle, red deer and Atlantic salmon. The local flora are dominated by heathermoor, and there are nationally important invertebrate populations on the surrounding sea bed. Skye has provided the locations for various novels and feature films and is celebrated in poetry and song. Etymology[edit]The first written references to the island are Roman sources such as the Ravenna Cosmography, which refers to Scitis[1.

Scetis, which can be found on a map by Ptolemy.[1. One possible derivation comes from skitis, an early Celtic word for winged, which may describe how the island's peninsulas radiate out from a mountainous centre.[1. Subsequent Gaelic- , Norse- and English- speaking peoples have influenced the history of Skye; the relationships between their names for the island are not straightforward. Various etymologies have been proposed, such as the "winged isle" or "the notched isle"[1. Gaelic language.[1. In the Norse sagas Skye is called Skíð, for example in the Hákonar saga Hákonarsonar[2. Heimskringla from c.

Skye with blood of foemen killed".[2. The island was also referred to by the Norse as Skuy (misty isle),[1. Skýey or Skuyö (isle of cloud).[1] The traditional Gaelic name is An t- Eilean Sgitheanach (the island of Skye), An t- Eilean Sgiathanach being a more recent and less common spelling.

In 1. 54. 9 Donald Munro, High Dean of the Isles, wrote of "Sky": "This Ile is callit Ellan Skiannach in Irish, that is to say in Inglish the wyngit Ile, be reason it has mony wyngis and pointis lyand furth fra it, throw the dividing of thir foirsaid Lochis."[Note 2] but the meaning of this Gaelic name is unclear.[2. Eilean a' Cheò, which means island of the mist (a translation of the Norse name), is a poetic Gaelic name for the island.[1. Note 3]Geography[edit].

Skye is the second- largest island in Scotland after Lewis and Harris. The coastline of Skye is a series of peninsulas and bays radiating out from a centre dominated by the Cuillin hills (Gaelic: An Cuiltheann). Malcolm Slesser suggested that its shape "sticks out of the west coast of northern Scotland like a lobster's claw ready to snap at the fish bone of Harris and Lewis"[9] and W. H. Murray, commenting on its irregular coastline, stated that "Skye is sixty miles [1. Note 4]Martin Martin, a native of the island, reported on it at length in a 1. His geological observations included a note that: There are marcasites black and white, resembling silver ore, near the village Sartle: there are likewise in the same place several stones, which in bigness, shape, & c., resemble nutmegs, and many rivulets here afford variegated stones of all colours.

The Applesglen near Loch- Fallart has agate growing in it of different sizes and colours; some are green on the outside, some are of a pale sky colour, and they all strike fire as well as flint: I have one of them by me, which for shape and bigness is proper for a sword handle. Stones of a purple colour flow down the rivulets here after great rains.— Martin Martin, A Description of The Western Islands of Scotland.[2. The Black Cuillin, which are mainly composed of basalt and gabbro, include twelve Munros and provide some of the most dramatic and challenging mountain terrain in Scotland.[9] The ascent of Sgùrr a' Ghreadaidh is one of the longest rock climbs in Britain and the Inaccessible Pinnacle is the only peak in Scotland that requires technical climbing skills to reach the summit.[1.

These hills make demands of the hill walker that exceed any others found in Scotland[2. Cuillin ridge may take 1. The Red Hills (Gaelic: Am Binnean Dearg) to the south are also known as the Red Cuillin. They are mainly composed of granite that has weathered into more rounded hills with many long scree slopes on their flanks.

The highest point of these hills is Glamaig, one of only two Corbetts on Skye.[2. The northern peninsula of Trotternish is underlain by basalt, which provides relatively rich soils and a variety of unusual rock features. The Kilt Rock is named after the tartan- like patterns in the 1. The Quiraing is a spectacular series of rock pinnacles on the eastern side of the main spine of the peninsula and further south is the rock pillar of the Old Man of Storr.[3. Beyond Loch Snizort to the west of Trotternish is the Waternish peninsula, which ends in Ardmore Point's double rock arch.

Duirinish is separated from Waternish by Loch Dunvegan, which contains the island of Isay. The loch is ringed by sea cliffs that reach 2. Waterstein Head. Oolitic loam provides good arable land in the main valley.

Lochs Bracadale and Harport and the island of Wiay lie between Duirinish and Minginish, which includes the narrower defiles of Talisker and Glen Brittle and whose beaches are formed from black basaltic sands.[3. Strathaird is a relatively small peninsula close to the Cuillin hills with only a few crofting communities,[3.

Soay lies offshore. The bedrock of Sleat in the south is Torridonian sandstone, which produces poor soils and boggy ground, although its lower elevations and relatively sheltered eastern shores enable a lush growth of hedgerows and crops.[3. The islands of Raasay, Rona, Scalpay and Pabay all lie to the north and east between Skye and the mainland.[1][1. Towns and villages[edit]Portree in the north at the base of Trotternish is the largest settlement (estimated population 2,2. Broadford, the location of the island's only airstrip, is on the east side of the island and Dunvegan in the north- west is well known for its castle and the nearby Three Chimneys restaurant.

The 1. 8th- century Stein Inn on the Waternish coast is the oldest pub on Skye.[3. Kyleakin is linked to Kyle of Lochalsh on the mainland by the Skye Bridge, which spans the narrows of Loch Alsh. Watch Running Scared Download Full. Uig, the port for ferries to the Outer Hebrides, is on the west of the Trotternish peninsula and Edinbane is between Dunvegan and Portree.[1.

Much of the rest of the population lives in crofting townships scattered around the coastline.[3. Climate[edit]The influence of the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf Stream create a mild oceanic climate. Temperatures are generally cool, averaging 6. C (4. 3. 7 °F) in January and 1. C (5. 9. 7 °F) in July at Duntulm in Trotternish.[3. Note 5] Snow seldom lies at sea level and frosts are less frequent than on the mainland. Winds are a limiting factor for vegetation.
