- Racial discrimination
- The colonialists are: The doctor, the priest, pearl buyers
Those dehumanized
- The title Indians - Kino, the residents LA Paz brush houses, the beggars, fisher man
(i) Racial Discrimination
-The doctor, rear buyers and the priest belong to the same are
-He cannot go to the bush houses to treat Coyotito
-The doctor lives in luxury. Surrounded by high perimeter wall, yellow plastered building hugging the beach. He eats well, chocolates and sweet cake Pg 54
-The little Indians line in bush houses
-The doctor calls the Indians animals by saying that he is not a veterinary to treat them Pg 23
-The priest - did not bother baptizing Coyotito
-He had not married Kino an Juana before they had the Pearl - Pg 51
-The pearl buyers - Pg 42. They reached the lowest price the fisherman could not stand. They extorted them and made them perennially poor.
-For all the doctor’s race spoke to all Kino’s race as though they were simple animals. Pg 26
-Kino’s race felt weak, angry and afraid all at the same time.
-Pg 26. The doctor did not belong to the people. He was of a different race , that for nearly 400 years had beaten starved, robbed and despised Kino’s race that they came humbling to the doctor.
-Exploitation of the fishermen
-The pearl buyer’s pg 64. The happiest pearl buyer was the one who bought at the lowest price
(ii) Poverty
-There is a sharp contrast/difference between the dwellings of the little Indians and the Europeans
-They live in bush houses (in abject poverty), have little to eat, no lightning .This sharply contrasts to the doctor who lives in the plastered houses, in a gated area eats lavishly. Kino and family eat corn cake and pulque for breakfast
-The doctor lived in stone houses with inner cool gardens. There were caged birds and water fountains. He had good bacon for breakfast, lived in opulence, imported furniture, he also ate sweet biscuits and more chocolate for breakfast. He could afford a mistress
-Kino’s people made a little living from pearl harvesting with no proper diving equipments. He uses a stone and ropes and an inherited canoe Pg 35. When they sold the pearls , they earned too little to support themselves Kino couldn’t afford Coyotito’s treatment. He offered ugly misshapen seed pearls flattened and almost valueless. Pg 28
-Pg 776. They were cheated from birth to the overcharge of their coffins
-Pg 44. In the pearl, Kino saw himself and Juana kneeling at the high alter and they could pay.
-They were dressed well – we will have new clothes
(iii) Exploitation
-The pearl buyers wish to buy at the lowest price. The pearl buyer offered 1000 pesos but he knew the value of Kino’s pearl. He offered 1500 pesos when he realized Kino would not sell it
-There was only one pearl buyer who keep agents in separate offices to give a semblance of completion Pg 42
-They waited in their chairs until the pearls came in, and cackled, fought, shouted and threatened until they reached the lowest price a fishermen could stand Pg 42
-A fisherman had given his pearls to the Church in despair Pg 42
-Pg 34 the king of spin had helped to pat for the war and has decorated the churches for his soul sake. By the use of money from the sale of the pearls, this king had risen o be a great power in Europe. This happened at the expense of the poor fishermen.
- Pg 68. The priest brainwashed the poor by telling them to remain in the poor town not to go to get better prices for their pearls. He wanted them to remain ignorant and not to change their status
It was against religion ... the loss of a pearl was a punishment to those who left their stations. Each man and woman is like a soldier send by God to guard some part of the castle of the universe. Pg 68
(iv) Lack of Education
-The colonizes have education , have an upper hand, the doctor makes use of the Kino’s ignorance, lack of knowledge to poison Coyotito.
-Pg 45-46
-Kino says, My son will go to school
-My son will read and open the books, and my son will write and will know writing. And my son will make numbers, and those things will make us free because he will know - he will know and through him we will know.'
-Their ignorance was exploited by the pearl buyers, the doctor and the priest. Through education, however the little Indians, will be free.

(Solved)
Read the following poem and then answer the questions that follow.
THE PAUPER.
Pauper, pauper, craning your eyes
In all directions, in no direction!
What brutal force, malignant element, Dared to forge your piteous fate? Was it worth the effort, the time?
You limply lean on a leafless tree
Nursing the jiggers that shrivel your bottom
Like baby newly born to an old woman.
What crime, what treason did you commit
That you are thus condemned to human indifference?
And when you trudge on the horny pads,
Gullied like the soles of modern shoes,
Pads that even jiggers cannot conquer;
Does He admire your sense of endurance
Or turn his head away from your imprudent presence?
You sit alone on hairless goatskins,
Your ribs and bones reflecting the light That beautiful cars reflect on you, Squashing like between your nails. And cleaning your nails with dry saliva.
And when He looks at the grimy coating
Caking off your emaciated skin,
At the rust that uproots all your teeth
Like a pick on a stony piece of land,
Does He pat his paunch at the wonderful sight?
Pauper, pauper, crouching in beautiful verandas Of beautiful cities and beautiful people, Tourists and I will take your snapshots, And your M.P. with a shining head and triple chin
Will mourn your fate in a supplementary questions at question time.

(Solved)
JACKAL AND HEN
This is a story that the old people tell. They say that hen flew to the top of a stack of wheat one day to find food. From where she stood on the stack she could see far out over the fields. She could see far and she saw Jackal coming from afar. She saw him coming towards her, she saw him out of the corner of her eyes, but when he came closer she did not look up at all. She went on hunting for food.
'Good morning, mother of mine,' Jackal greeted her.
'Yes, I greet you,' she replied.
'Are you still living?' He asked, according to the correct way in which one person greets another.
'Yes, I am still living. And you? Are you still living also?'
'Yes, I too am still living, mother, 'he replied. And then he asked as the custom was, 'Did you wake well this morning?'
And she answered, as it is proper, 'Yes, I woke well.'
And all the while he was talking, talking, talking, Jackal was looking closely at hen and saw that she was young and that her flesh would taste sweet. He thought of how he would get at her. But now she was standing on top of that stack of wheat, where he could not reach her. He could not get hold of her at all, not while she was on top of the stack of wheat, and would have to think of a way to get her down.
Jackal had many plans. He was a man who was not just a little bit clever. No, he was very clever. He asked her. 'Mother, have you heard of that there is peace among everybody on earth? One animal may not catch another animal any more, because of that peace.
'Peace?' She asked.
'Yes, mother, peace. The chiefs called together a big meeting, and at that meeting they decided this business of peace on all the earth.'
'Oh yes,' said hen. But she wondered about it. She wondered whether this Jackal could be telling the truth. He was a man with many clever stories, and many times those clever stories were nothing but lies.
'You say there is peace now?' 'Yes, mother. The big peace. There has never been such a big peace. You can safely come down from that stack of wheat. Then we can talk about the matter nicely. We shall take snuff together. Come down. Mother! Remember the peace!'
But hen was not quite as stupid as Jackal thought she was. She wanted to make sure first that Jackal was telling the truth and that he was not telling her lies again. She turned around and looked far out over the fields behind her. Then she went to stand on the highest point of the stack and kept staring out over the fields until Jackal asked: 'What is it that you see from up there that you stare so: me?'
'What do I see? Why do you want to know what I see? It does not matter what I see, for there is no danger anymore for any animal on earth. Is it not peace among the animals? It is only a pack of dogs that are running towards us.'
“Dogs! A pack of dogs!' he cried. And his fear was very great. 'Then I shall have to greet you, mother. I am a man who has a lot of work waiting.'
'Kekekeke!' hen laughed. 'I thought it was peace among all animals on earth? Have you forgotten it? The dogs will do nothing to harm you. 'Why do you want to run away, grandfather?' I don’t think this pack of dogs came to the meeting on peace!' and jackal ran so fast that the dust rose in great clouds from the road behind him.
'Kekekeke!' laughed hen, for then she knew the story of the peace was just a big lie. And she knew that if she had taken snuff with that fellow he would have caught her so she made up a story herself and with it she had caught him beautifully.
'Kekekeke!' she laughed. 'I caught the story teller with another story.' And that is the end of this story

In the pulpit he swayed and turned
Leaned forward, backward
His solemn voice echoed,
Lowly the congregation followed;
'Do you love your neighbour?'
Meekly they bow at his keen eye
Now examining a grey head
Hearing under her sobs.
His heart kept assured
'Her sins weigh on her'
So with her he chats outside;
'Weep not, child you are pardoned,'
'But sir, your beard conjured up
The spirit of my dead goat!'

Read the oral Narrative below and answer the questions that follow
THE WARRIOR WHO HAD EIGHT LOVERS
A long time ago there was a warrior whose bravery and handsome looks made the girls of the village fall in love with him. Eight girls, at least, were known to want to marry the young warrior, for they had composed many songs in his praise.
Now, this warrior was one time getting ready to go on alone raid in faraway country. Before he set off for the raid, he called the youngest of his eight lovers and told her to put fresh milk in a small guard. He also instructed her to keep checking on the colour of the milk every day.” Should the milk turn red, “ the warrior told the girl, ‘ it would mean that I have been killed or I am seriously wounded.’
The young girl was so touched by the departure of her lover that she composed the following song for him.
My warrior whom I love
For whom I open the sweet curdled
Milk of my father’s herd,
And to whom I give fat rams
Of my father to slaughter,
To whom I give my slender
Thighs to lie on,
With whom are you going on a raid next?
It happened that many days after the departure of the warrior, the girl noticed that the milk was turning red. She wept bitterly, for she knew that her lover was either dead or dying in a faraway country. Without telling anyone, the girl set off to look for her dying lover.
For many days she traveled, and as she walked through plains and forests she sang the song she had composed for her warrior. She travelled on and as she travelled she checked the colour of the milk in the gourd. Each day that she saw the milk turn a little more red, she traveled faster. And each day she hoped that she would find her lover alive.
On the ninth day the girl sang louder and louder as she traveled. Each time she sang she would listen to hear if their was any reply. Any as she listened at one time, she heard a faint voice. There was no mistake about it. It was her lover’s voice. She ran and ran and after a while she found her lover. He was extremely weak and badly wounded. When the dying warrior saw her, he told her; ‘When I am finished, you take my attire and weapons home. When you get a son give them to him And with that the warrior seemed to be dying.
But the girl did not listen to him, she quickly looked for water and washed his wounds. And after that she began to look for food for him. It did not take long before she saw a deer passing by. With her lover’s spear she killed it, and wasted the meat for her lover. For many months the young women washed the wounds of her lover and fed him until he was well again.
Back at home everybody thought that the young woman and her lover were dead, and they insisted that their death rites be performed. However, the father of the warrior kept postponing the death rites. But at last the old man agreed to perform the rites because his youngest son was to be circumcised, and could not be circumcised before the rites were performed.
So preparations for the death rites for the lost warrior were made. But on the morning of the day that the rites were to be performed, and as people were gathering, one of the people in the gathering heard a war song coming from the other side of the valley. He asked other people to listen. The father of the warrior could not mistake his son’s voice. He was almost crying as he gazed on the other side of the valley. The singing voice became clearer and before long the warrior and his lover emerged, driving a large herd of cattle. The bells that were tied around the necks of the oxen played to the tune of the war song.
There was great rejoicing as people ran to meet the lost warrior and his young lover. On their arrival back home a big bull was slaughtered and there was a great feast. People at and drank. And the warrior and his lover were married. The two became man and wife and lived happily. And my story ends.

Read the narrative below and answer the questions that follow.
THE CRUEL STEP – MOTHER
Once upon a time, there was a man and wife who had a baby girl. Unfortunately, the wife died and so, the man married again. He got another girl with the second wife.
The two girls became extremely close, so close that whenever the mother sent one on an errand, the other was sure to accompany her. The mother, however, did not like the child of the deceased. She would always show her dislike by denying her certain favours. Her feelings became so bad that she decided to get rid of the girl. To do this, she dug a hole in her bedroom on a day when the husband was absent and covered the hole with a cow’s hide. She then called her daughter and sent her to the house of a friend some kilometers away. As usual, the two girls wanted to go together but the woman refused, giving the excuse that she wanted to send the other one elsewhere.
After the departure of her daughter, she called the other girl and sent her for her snuffbox in the bedroom. Unaware of what lay ahead, the girl eagerly rushed into the room only to fall into a hole! The mother very quickly filled the hole with soil, completely disregarding the girl’s screams for help.
When the daughter came back, she merely assumed that the absence of her dear companion was justified. After hours of waiting, she, however, became impatient and questioned the mother.
‘Where is my sister?’ she asked.
‘But she followed you. As soon as she did what I wanted, she ran after you. Now stop bothering me,’ the mother retorted.
Time passed and the now anxious girl went round calling out the name of the other one, but all in vain. Alas…. She cried the whole night and the next day and refused to touch any food. The father helped in the search but to no avail.
After three days, the girl still cried and called the other one. She then heard a very weak voice responding in song:
Maalya Maalya
Maalya Maalya
Na mwenyu niwe mwai iiee malya,
Ekwinza muthiko iiee malya,
Wakwisa kunthika iiee malya
Wakwisa kunthika iiee malya
(Maalya Maalya
And your mother is the wise one iiee malya,
She dug a grave iiee malya,
For interring me in iiee malya.)
The girl dashed towards the direction of the voice, repeated her cries and again go the same response. She came to the conclusion that whoever was responding was definitely underground somewhere in the house. Immediately theThe husband then explained the truth of the matter and told his in-laws to take their daughter with them. They said that if that was what she had done to the girl, they couldn’t have such a monster in their house. The woman was disowned by all and chased away.
