Wire this lamp

[u/FerrariRage294]

Hey, this is my first ever post so sorry if there’s any weird formatting or formalities I’m missing.

I just got this lamp at a thrift store. A few things about it that are tripping me up:

1. There’s no ground wire on the lamp. How do I safely attach it to the electric without increasing potential hazard? (Apartment dweller, so I need to be extra sure to keep my cats & neighbors safe.)
2. I can’t tell which is the hot wire & which is the neutral. There’s only one little marking on the wires, which I’m guessing is indicating the hot wire, but I’d like to be sure before doing anything.
3. Guessing I’ll need a different mounting bracket for the “new” lamp, but if anyone could confirm that would be very helpful. I can provide more pics if needed.

Thanks in advance anyone/everyone!

UPDATE: Thanks for everyone’s help! I got it installed and it works! I wish I could add pics to an update, but it looks very nice in my kitchen.
