PS:

IN REFLECTION MUST HAVE BEEN OUT OF MY MIND!

PPS: ANY PROTEST NOW UP TO GWYNEDD PATRIOTS AFTER ALL INVESTITURE'69 WAS VERY MUCH A KICK IN THE TEETH FOR THEY!

HOWEVER, IF GWYNEDD PATRIOTS HAD NO GUTS, GUMPTION NOR ANY DETERMINATION OR ANY IDEAS HOW TO PROTEST DURING NETFLIX FILMING IN CAERNARFON 2018, WHAT HOPE THEY CAN DIG UP SOME 'CYMRIC COURAGE' TO PROTEST AGAINST INVESTITURE '69 - 2019 CELEBRATIONS. NOT AN HOPE IN HELL AS OVER LAST 50 YEARS PLAID CYMRU CAMBRO - BRITS ARE IN CHARGE OF GWYNEDD AND THEY ARE OF COURSE A CAMBRO - BRIT PARTY AS FOR CYIG AND THEIR 'PLANT CRACHACH' ALSO 'LLAIS GWYNEDD' HAVE BEEN SUBDUED BY CULTURAL GRANTS - SO MUCH FOR CULTURAL NATIONALISM WHICH PUTS THEIR PATRIOTISM TO SLEEP AND THEIR 'HEN IAITH' ABOVE WELSH LIBERTY AND ANY NATIONAL LIBERATION STRUGGLE IS NOW DOOMED TO DISMAY OF A FEW WHO STILL FANTASIZE ABOUT 'RHYDDID I GYMRU'.

THE WELSH SIXTIES: WHY IS REMEMBERING THE ABERGELE MARTYRS AND INVESTITURE1 JULY 1969 IMPORTANT - AS IMPORTANT AS REMEMBERING CAPEL CELYN - COFIA TRYWERYN - BIRTH OF MAC. (movies & sian ifan you tube films at post end)

NATIONALISTS ARE REALLY GETTING WOUND UP ABOUT
'COFIWCH DREWERYN' BUT 'ANGHOFIO MERTHYRON ABERGELE'

THOUGH SOME PATRIOTS SEE 'COFIWCH ABERFAN JUST AS IMPORTANT AND ALSO 'COFIWCH MERTHYRON ABERGELE'69'IN THIS YEAR 2019 THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEATH OF TWO MAC
FREEDOM FIGHTERS.

https://brwydr.blogspot.com/2019/04/the-last-welsh-war-against-colonialism.html

http://rhuorddraig.blogspot.com/

WHY SO?

MAYBE BECAUSE 1963 WAS THE YEAR MAC WAS BORN IN THE 'TRYWERYN TROUBLES'.

OVER OVERWHELMINGLY SEEN AS A CULTURAL NATIONALIST MATTER IN BELOW POSTING TO NATION CYMRU>

Why the Tryweryn mural matters - Nation.Cymru

https://nation.cymru/opinion/tryweryn-mural-destroyed-rebuilt-why-matters/

FOR MYSELF THIS WAS NOT THE CASE WHO AT THE TIME HAD JUST RETURNED FROM LIVING AND WORKING IN SOMERSET, RETURNING TO WALES INSPIRED BY THIS ACT OF ENGLISH COLONIALISM AND THE MILITANT RESISTANCE TO SUCH BY MAC. TO MY MIND THE BUILDING OF THE TRYWERYN RESERVOIR WAS AS MUCH AND ACT OF COLONIAL OPPRESSION AND ECONOMIC EXPLOITATION AS WE WITNESS IN THE LAND GRABBING TO DAY BY WIND FARMING COMPANIES AS AT MYNYDD Y BETWS AND MYNYDD Y GWAIR.

http://cymrwchytirynol.blogspot.com/2011/

http://stryveland.blogspot.com/2018/12/

WHATEVER, AS SEEN IN NATION CYMRU POST 'WHY TREWERYN MATTERS', THE MATTER OF LAND AND LIBERTY STRUGGLE AGAINST COLONIALISM DOES NOT MATTER SO MUCH TO CULTURAL NATIONALISTS AKA 'Y CRACHACH NEWYDD' . MYSELF DISAGREE>

http://gethingruffydd.blogspot.com/2019/04/tryweryn-great-sell-out-what-should.html

CYIG WHO IN NO SHORT TIME BECAME MORE CONCERNED WITH SOCIAL STATUS AND ECONOMIC (S4C ETC)ADVANCEMENT AS 'Y CRACHACH NEWYDD', ONE SHOULD NOTE THAT IN 1963 NEITHER WERE THEY NOR 'POBL CAPEL CELYN' PREPARED TO RADICALLY FIGHT BACK AS NATIVE AMERICANS WITH THE WOUNDED KNEE OCCUPATION. IT APPEARS THAT SUNDERS LEWIS WAS AS EARLY AS 1961 URGING CULTURAL NATIONALISTS TO BACK SLIDE OVER TRYWERYN AS GWYNFOR EVANS WAS TO DO SAME WITHIN PLAID CYMRU IN OTHER WORDS BACK DOWN AND NO MORE FIGHT BACK BUT JUST SURRENDER?

Autumn 1961 Saunders Lewis tells Gwylim Tudur and Emyr Llywelyn to forget Tryweryn and focus on Coleg Studies.

BUT LETS MOVE ON TO RELAUNCH A NEW NATIONAL
LIBERATION STRUGGLE.

WHAT IF THERE WAS TO BE ANY ANTI - INFEST III PROTESTS IN CAERNARFON/CASTLE OVER 29 - 30 JUNE AND 1st JULY 2019 - WHAT WOULD BE ACHIEVED AND WHAT COULD BE DONE - A MAJOR FREEDOM FESTIVAL IN CAERNARFON.?

C'MON CAERNARFON/GWYNEDD PATRIOTS TIME TO WAKE UP!

WHAT WOULD BE ACHIEVED BY PROTEST.

1: SHOW CYMRU/WALES AND THE WORLD PATRIOTS ARE STILL PREPARED TO PROTEST AGAINST FURTHER INVESTITURES OF ENGLISH PRINCES FOR WALES NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES. THAT SUCH PROTESTS WILL BE VARIED AND RADICAL IN DEMONSTRATION OF PATRIOTIC DISCONTENT. THUS IN THE COMING CAERNARFON PROTESTS THE LAUNCHING OF A FUTURE ANTI - INFEST III CAMPAIGN SHALL BE LAUNCHED IN A WEEKEND FREEDOM FESTIVAL OR IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK OF CONTEMPORARY PATRIOTS?

2: SENDING A MESSAGE TO CAMBRO BRIT TRAITORS WHO WOULD SUPPORT SUCH FUTURE INFESTATION OF ENGLISH ROYALTY IN CAERNARFON AND UPON OUR COUNTRY THAT SUCH TREACHERY WILL NOT BE WELCOME AND SUPPORTERS OF SUCH AND THOSE WHO WOULD ASSIST IN ORGANISATION OF SUCH WOULD BE ALL RADICALLY OPPOSED AND IN PARTICULAR THAT INCLUDES THE WELSH ASSEMBLY, CAERNARFON/GWYNEDD COUNCILS PLUS BODIES AS CADW ETC.

3: OF PARTICULAR IMPORTANCE IN PROTEST ACTIVITIES WOULD BE TO EDUCATE THE PEOPLE OF CAERNARFON, GWYNEDD AND CYMRU AS TO THEIR HOMELANDS HISTORY, NOT LEAST THE TRUTH AND REALITY OF THE BRUTAL CONQUEST OF CYMRU BETWEEN YEARS 1282 - 84. THE ASSASSINATION OF LLYWELYN III IN ABEREDW EXECUTION OF DAFYDD III IN SHREWSBURY. FURTHER TO EDUCATE AS TO THE ROYAL TREASURES IN 'Y CROES NAID' STOLEN BY EDWARD Ist AND THE REALTY OF CAERNARFON CASTLE AS A SYMBOL OF OUR CONQUEST AND SUBSEQUENT COLONIZATION.

WHAT TO DO?

A: START TO PREPARE FOR A SUMMER OF SLOGAN PAINTING

B: POSTER CAMPAIGN

C: BANNER MAKING AS WE DID IN 1983

D: PLACARD MAKING.

E: Y CROES NAID CAMPAIGN.

F: EDUCATIONAL PROTEST

CYMRIC CULTURAL AND HISTORY BOOK STALLS AND EXHIBITIONS ON THE CONQUEST OF 1282 - 84 PLUS NOT LEAST EDUCATE ON THE WELSH REVOLTS OF 1294, 1315 AND 1345 ALSO THAT OF THE OWAIN GLYNDWR LIBERATION STRUGGLE 1400 - 16 CONTINUED BY HIS SON MAREDUDD TO 1421 TO INSPIRE.
