Certain ideologies in the past continue to have consequences in the lives of many today. This is the case with Western Australia’s policy of resettlement for Aboriginal people during the 1930’s. Jack Davis‚ an Aboriginal playwright‚ constructed the play No Sugar to challenge the view that this resettlement is acceptable.
