    Thus far there has been Stage presentations of the Merthyr Rising 1831, Llanidloes 1839, Rhyfel y Sias Bach 1826, The Rebecca Riots 1848, Tonypandy 1910 and on the horizon Llanelli 1911. After the above, may I suggest the Amlwch Revolt 1817 and the Battle of Cinder Hill 1830 also what about the Mold Riots 1868, then why is Edward Morgan and Tarw Scotch so much a forgotten history? Great Stuff! Remembering past Working Class history on the stage and in musicals is a much needed way of keeping alive memories of peoples struggles. Much needed as well however, is some Red Street Theatre and Living History Reenactment, if interested note below:

    However, hopefully it will all inspire people to continue the struggle for Liberty and Justice in our own times, let the struggle for freedom against Tyrrany and Oppression continue hence.

    REMEMBERING GWYN ALF WILLIAMS

    RED REMEMBRANCER 'NUMERO UNO'

    An Event To Remember.

    Tuesday 23 November 2010 7:00 pm

    To Mark 25th Anniversary of 'When Was Wales' and the 'Dragon Has Two Tounges'
    Michael Ryan and Colin Thomas will show excerpts from the programmes and
    will lead a discussion on the impact of Gwyn's work.

    A Free Event - All Welcome.


    I am not going to make above event unfortunatly but maybe someone could during the discussion suggest/propose that in Gwyn's memory this event becomes an annual Weekend Workers Remembrancers College with lectures, seminars and workshops all with purpose of preparing future 'Red Remembrancers' to carry on Gwyn's labours for Wales and our Workers, People, Communities and Country as well as International Solidarity. Work carried out as much in the work place and community as places of Academia.

Do note that 2012 will mark the 80th Anniversary of the Hunger Marches:

No I am not going to suggest we commemorate with an Anniversary march to London, my belief is that hence yes! lets be 'Internationalists' and have workers and Peoples Solidarity but then lets fight our Socialist Struggle here in Wales with first Welsh Red Resistence to Tory 'Colonial Cuts' Acts of Agression. Then lets have a Welsh 'RED REVOLUTION', symbolic barriacdes aka protests and demonstrations! but the real Red Revolution will be in making the Welsh Assembly a 'RED ASSEMBLY' of Progessive Left and Radical Republicans. Any 'Left of Centre' Welsh Political Nationalists should now leave Plaid Cymru and join in helping to build the RED RESISTENCE and RED REVOLUTION, another way of putting it is RED RESISTENCE TODAY! and RED REVOLUTION TOMORROW!
