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.

WHY SO?

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



OTHERWISE A NUMBER OF MAIN STREAM MODERATE PACIFIST CULTURAL NATIONALIST OPINIONS ARE GIVEN BELOW>



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



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.

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>

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.
