Martin Johnes – Research notes and resources on the ...
AM NOT REALLY UP FOR DEALING WITH ALL OF MARTIN'S WORK, MARTIN HAS BEEN VERY BUSY AND IT'S ALL OVERWHELMING FOR MANY WHO ARE NOT IN A PROFESSIONAL CAPACITY PAID JOB IT IS TO DELIVER SUCH MATERIAL https://martinjohnes.com/essays/. AS FOR HIS TV PROG AND BOOK ON COLONIALISM IS CONCERNED I DO NOT WANT TO NIT PICK BUT I DO SUGGEST A TELEVISED DEBATE BETWEEN MARTIN AND THE FOLLOWING ADVOCATES OF ALTERNATIVE VIEWS TO MARTIN AS>
ADAM PRICE PLAID CYMRU Wales,
the first and final colony - by Adam Price MP - Wales Online
SION JOBBINS YES CYMRU https://twitter.com/marchglas?lang=en
ALAN JONES GREAT UNREST http://greatunrest2012.blogspot.com/2019/

SIAN IFAN EMBASSY GLYNDWR
GETHIN AP GRUFFYDD http://cofiwn.blogspot.com/
ADDITIONAL: GRUFF MAREDUDD OF SOFRANIAETH, LEON RUSSELL OF HAWLIAU NATIONAL RIGHTS, NEIL MCEVOY OF PROPEL AND OWAIN WILLIAMS OF LLAIS GWYNEDD. AS FOR ME CONSIDER MINCING WORDS MEANS LITTLE AS COLONIALISM IS WHAT IT IS AND SURE WALES WAS A COLONY AND NOW IS A WELSH ASSEMBLY NEO - COLONY AKA INTERNAL COLONY.
SEE BELOW: FANNON ARGUES THE CASE FOR CULTURAL NATIONALISM AS A WEAPON AGAINST COLONIALISM AND THIS MAY BE TRUE OF WALES/CYMRU IN THE 'SIXTIES' BUT SINCE VIA 'CULTURAL GRANTS' THE CULTURAL NATIONALISM OF THE 'SIXTIES' OF CYIG HAS PRODUCED 'Y CRACHACH NEWYDD' THAT ARE FAR FROM BEING ANTI - COLONIAL AS THEY SEEK THE ADVANCE OF THEIR CULTURAL CLASS.
BUT ON MATTER OF INDEPENDENCE I AGREE WITH MARTIN, IT'S A MATTER OF PRACTICALITIES AND SUCH DOES NOT WEIGH IN FAVOR OF INDEPENDENCE AS I HAVE TOUCHED ON IN>
WHEN IT COMES TO EDUCATION AND TEACHING OF WELSH HISTORY I CAN GET MORE PERSONAL IN CHALLENGING MARTIN.

DURING MY SCHOOL YEARS I WAS TAUGHT VERY LITTLE WELSH HISTORY BUT YES WELSH HYMNS AND FOLK SONGS. IN FACT MY SENIOR YEAR WELSH LANGUAGE TEACHER HID THE GOOD WELSH HISTORY BOOK 'RAISE UP THE DRAWBRIDGE', THIS I FOUND OUT WHEN SHE TOLD ME TO CLEAN A CUPBOARD IN WHICH I SAW A PILE OF THESE BOOKS SHE NEVER BROUGHT TO WIDER ATTENTION. WELSH HISTORY CAME BY CHANCE AS MY MAM BUYING ME AN CYCLOPEDIA ON BRITISH HISTORY WHICH INCLUDED ONE PAGE ON WELSH HISTORY. FROM THERE IT WAS SELF EDUCATION AND IN TIME AS A YOUNG NATIONALIST I MET OTHERS WHO LIKE I HAD NOT BEEN TAUGHT OUR HISTORY AND THUS THIS MOVED US TO ESTABLISHING COFIWN AN IDEA ORIGINATING WITH MYSELF FROM MY YEARS IN AN 'IRISH EXILE' IN WHICH I BECAME AWARE HOW THE IRISH KEPT THEIR HISTORY TO THE FORE VIA SUCH AS 'HEDGE TEACHERS' AND FENIANS.
MARTIN MAKES GREAT PLAY OF EARLY WELSH HISTORY PROMOTED BY LIKES OF >
OWEN M. EDWARDS GRAND FATHER OF ‘Y
CRACHACH NEWYDD ‘

LETS MOVE ON>
COFIWCH DREWERYN.

THE BIGGER QUESTION IS WHY CONTEMPORARY NATIONALISTS ATTACH SO MUCH ATTENTION TO TRYWERYN, MAYBE BECAUSE PRESENT DAY NATIONALISTS BOTH OLD AND NEW ARE SO BLOODY PATHETIC WHEN IT COMES TO RADICAL NATIONALIST ACTION APART FROM ADAM BC BANGING THE DRUM AND SION JOBBINS WAXING LYRICAL ABOUT YES CYMRU. IF THAT'S THE BEST NATIONALISTS TODAY CAN PULL OUT OF THE FB GHETTO FUSILIER BUM BAG THEN THERE IS REALLY NO HOPE FOR WELSH FREEDOM AND INDEPENDENCE, FIN!
COFIWCH ABERGELE 1969
https://www.aber.ac.uk/en/news/archive/2016/12/title-195197-en.html
MYSELF, WILL BE AT ABERGELE TRIBUTE BUT LEAVING ANY ACTION IN CAERNARFON TO GWYNEDD PATRIOTS AFTER ALL 1911, 1969 AND FUTURE INVESTITURES IS THEIR CONCERN.
