Long Time Since Yesterday

Long Time Since Yesterday was a play by PJ Gibson and directed by Joy Vandervort-Cobb. This was very different from the first play that we were required to see.

    No Sugar Play Analysis

    Realist plays are often a response or a comment on an issue or topic in society, past or present. Within No sugar, it is accepted Davis is responding to the topic of racism against Indigenous Australians, treating them in a subhuman manner and “othering” them. Othering can be defined as the practise of imposing a definition on a particular group in society, most commonly a marginalised one. It consequently disempowers the chosen groups and allows the dominant group to maintain it’s power and control. With reference to the 1905 Aborigines Act, it can be determined that the process of othering happened on a political scale to the Australians Aboriginals. The act was intentionally constructed to consolidate the use of the Indigenous Australian’s…

    A Long Way Gone Analysis

    A Long Way Gone by Ishmael Beah is a story of a boy soldier and his journey throughout his country's civil war and his forced transition from childhood to adulthood. A long way gone is a perfect title for the book because throughout his struggles he travels farther and farther from his innocence. When a boy like Ishmael is exposed to the horrors and tragedy of war at such a young age it is only human nature to adjust to the environment around them. "I would always tell people that I believe that children have the resilience to outlive their sufferings, if given a chance" (pg 169). Ishmael learned how to survive amongst constant strife and brutality. He breaks his moral codes in order to survive and looses his innocence along the way.…

    In the article titled “College players deserve pay for play,” Rod Gilmore makes his case clear; it’s time for a change in college football. Since college sports originated, the athletes have been considered amateurs that receive benefits through scholarships. Recently, college football has become a multi billion dollar industry, and controversy about whether or not players should get paid has risen from it. Through factually supported claims, clever attacks at the system in place, and intelligent and reasonable requests, Gilmore presents a convincing argument to persuade readers to support college football players being paid.…

    A Wrinkle In Time Analysis

    In A Wrinkle in Time, Meg’s level of self-control changes significantly. Before the change, Meg’s self-control was very low as she would punch people at the smallest taunt. For example, Meg attacked a boy at her school for insulting her brother. In fact, she would let all her common sense escape her mind, and she would just use her instincts. After the change, she would keep her anger to herself, though she would still feel it. For instance, when she felt anger towards her dad for not allowing her to save her brother, she did not act on her feelings. Instead, she gathered support from Aunt Beast, Mrs.Who, Mrs.Which, Mrs.Whatsit.…
