Answer:

Explanation:No Sugar is a postcolonial play written by Indigenous Australian playwright Jack Davis, set during the Great Depression, in Northam, Western Australia, Moore River Native Settlement and Perth. The play focuses on the Millimurras, an Australian Aboriginal family, and their attempts at subsistence.

The play explores the marginalisation of Aboriginal Australians in the 1920s and 1930s in Australia under the jurisdiction of a white government. The pivotal themes in the play include racism, white empowerment and superiority, Aboriginal disempowerment, the materialistic values held by the white Australians, Aboriginal dependency on their colonisers, and the value of family held by Aboriginal people.

The play was first performed by the Playhouse Company in association with the Australian Theatre Trust, for the Festival of Perth on 18 February 1985. It also was chosen as a contribution to Expo 86 in Canada[1][2] No Sugar forms the first part of a trilogy, the First Born Trilogy, which also includes the titles The Dreamers and Barungin (Smell the Wind). The trilogy was first performed by the Melbourne Theatre Company in May 1988 at the Fitzroy Town Hall.[3] The play won the 1987 Western Australian Premiers Award[4] and in 1992 the Kate Challis RAKA Award for Indigenous Playwrights.[5]

The play utilises the perambulant model, which is a technique used in drama to dislocate the audience involving multiple points of focus. Throughout No Sugar it is employed to convey a sense of displacement to the audience, representative of the isolation felt by the Aboriginal people unable and unwilling to assimilate to white culture.

So I was adopted, when I was like 7 and now I am 13 and my mom always gets mad at me and talks about how she doesn't want me any
hram777 [196]
First of all i don’t think it’s your fault she’s always mad at you. don’t go and instantly blame yourself. maybe talk to her? ask her why she says these things and ask where she’s coming from. she may be going through a hard time in her personal life and this has nothing to do with you, or maybe there is something that you could work on and with communication you guys could work through it. if there’s nothing or she doesn’t say anything then don’t blame yourself. when you’re feeling down and want to cry, reach out to another family member or a friend to calm you down and remind you that you’re not a burden. but i really would just try talking to her and open up to her about how her words make you feel. i hope things get better for you.

This story is not true because the elapsed time between 9:00 pm and 4:00 am is five hours. The author also says the words "must've" which do not indicate an exact answer. I hope this helps!
