As a Native American, this speaks volumes and is strikingly similar to our history. We too had our language stripped. I'm Stockbridge Munsee band of the Mohican and Menominee. There used to be 30-40,000 Mohicans pre 1700's. Today? Our number stands at 1,800 enrolled Stockbridge tribal members like my wife and I, and our 3 children. I actually sought out a Stockbridge women for that very reason. Our culture was disappearing. This year we buried my Grandmother who was our oldest tribal member at 98 and the last of her generation as all her brothers and sisters have passed. I fear that in 100 years, our tribe will cease to exist. We too made deals with the British. We actually sided with them during the revolutionary war. In hindsight it was a bad idea, but for a 1770s Mohican, it made perfect sense. Do you want your landlord to live next to you or across an ocean? But they didn't win, and as a result neither did we. That's why we don't get to live in New York anymore, we got to walk to Wisconsin where fortunately the Menominee gave us land to have our reservation. The majority of people on the reservation are below the poverty limit. In fact 48% of adult males age 18-49 are below the federal poverty level. We have the highest AIDS transmission rates in an entire state. Drugs and alcohol, methamphetamine especially, has crippled the community. I thought the alcohol was bad. I thought the opioid epidemic was bad. But this is like nothing I've ever seen. Now we have an opioid crisis, with a meth crisis. Having only 1,800 members means that every death is noticed and felt because we all know each other.

I used to wonder why _"Westerns"_ were so popular in 1950s & 1960s television. Then I realized that they were basically the tales passed down from grandfathers & great-grandfathers brought to life. It was a retelling of a past that was known, but just out of reach. For instance, I was born in 1962 and there are pictures of "Nana" (my great, great-grandmother) holding me as a baby but she had past by the time I was aware of anything.

The Irish, Welsh, and Scottish fought the British to preserve their customs and way of life. America fought the British to eliminate an economic competitor. What America then did to the Natives has almost been on par with the atrocities of the Holocaust. Your people were chased from the coast, then forced from the fertile Midwest, and if you weren't exterminated you were given the pittance of shitty land in the badlands of the Southwestern states that already had downtrodden Native populations of their own. What a fucking travesty.

So, let's get this level of intelligence we read here understood, as there just isn't any, LOL. Welsh history is, In the 16th century Henry VIII, who was Welsh being the great-grandson of Owen Tudor, passed the "Laws in Wales Acts" aiming to fully incorporate Wales into the Kingdom of England. Wales was also defeated by the Romans, while the Cornish never were, so if any part of England does have a right to its own independence, it is ONLY Cornwall that do have a right to make that claim, they remained undefeated. The Roman's tried, and they failed to defeat the Cornish. In the 1st century, upon the Roman's arrival, they initially recorded the Dumnonii but later reported on the Cornovii of Dumnonii. The Romans colonized much of central and southern Britain, but Dumnonia was unaffected by the conquest. Roman rule had little to no impact on the region, meaning it could flourish as a fully independent kingdom, which evidence shows was sometimes under the dominion of the kings of the Britons, and sometimes to have been governed by its own Dumnonian monarchy, (either by the title of duke or king). This kingdom shared strong linguistic, political and cultural links with Brittany. The Saxons also tried and failed to defeat the Cornish. When the Kingdom of Wessex were expanding their territory westwards towards Cornwall after they defeated the Welsh. The Cornish were frequently embattled with the West Saxons who used their Germanic word "walha" meaning "stranger" or "foreigner", to describe their opponents, later specifying them as the Cornwalas (the Cornish). Conflict continued until King Athelstan of England gave up, and he determined that the River Tamar be the formal boundary between the West Saxons and the Cornish in the year 936, making Cornwall one of the very last retreats of the true Britons.

In 1967 I went on a family holiday to North-Wales, in a village called Cwm-y-glo. I was seven. My enduring memory of those two weeks was the amount of water; not just because it rained for much of the time, but the numerous reservoirs in this part of the world, yet we were cut off for much of the day. Why? Because there were big black pipes heading towards Liverpool and Manchester. A child's mind I believe is more logical than an adult's, and I remember saying to my parents, 'that's not fair.' It still resonates, and I can't help but feel that Wales is overlooked by Westminster. I stand by The Welsh.

I live in America, both my grandparents were from South Wales. My grandmother grew up while Welsh not was practiced and she always said she was English. I couldn’t understand why and I found out about Welsh not maybe 5 or 6 years ago. Her family only spoke Welsh. Her mother never knew English and her father did. My grandfather moved to America to avoid working in the coal mines and when WW 1 started he was given a choice to join the US army or be deported. He knew he would be drafted in Wales and if he survived in the US army he would get citizenship. So he joined the army. He married my grandmother in Wales after the war near Swansea and brought her to Michigan. I appreciate what you did to free Wales. I can never understand why nobody know what Wales really is. It’s never mentioned as part of the UK in America. They always say the English, Scottish and Irish, never Wales. Thank you for all you suffered, I know I really don’t understand how much you gave up. I do appreciate what you did.

The buried bodies in the graveyard of the chapel were just capped in concrete and believe they were not reinterred in the new chapel on the resevoir foreshore. Some grave stones were moved.

These boys changed the face of Wales forever. Since the 60's the Welsh language has grown, and grown. Welsh culture and the Welsh identity grows ever stronger, whilst the English identity is now under attack... from the English middle Class Socialista in London. Cofiwch Dryweryn ❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I fear there are now seismic forces at work that NO ONE in the British Isles can hope to resist. Forget about Welsh Nationalism, History, Culture etc.; they are rapidly being extinguished. I'm well aware I'm stating the obvious and this indisputable reality shatters my heart, but we ( the indigenous people's of the British Isles) are about to become a footnote in history. All I can say is we must be fruitful and multiply. I say these things more in sadness than in anger.

Get back across the black pool paddie non a that

I went to Ysgol Y Berwyn (secondary school) in Y Bala. Tryweryn and Capel Celyn as a topic was omnipresent. My great grandmother told me of the time she was caned and made to wear the 'Welsh Not' for simply interpreting to her classmate who had asked her 'What did the teacher say?'. The recent news (May 2023) that the UK Government were downplaying the number of Welsh speakers in the census by a huge amount just demonstrates that the Westmonster (sic) attitude towards Wales, its language and culture has not changed. The three men of Mudiad Amddiffyn Cymru are not only considered patriots, but heroes. For non-Welsh speakers visiting Wales, please don't be alarmed if you see the word 'Mudiad' as it is used in many ways and the word itself has many connotations that are completely non-political and certainly not linked to violence. E.g. 'Mudiad Meithrin' which is the name for Welsh-medium playgroups for infants. Tieran Freedman deserves a lot of credit for this very accurate and comprehensive documentary. Perhaps the number of likes, or lack thereof for what is an exceptional video, is testament to the general attitude and maybe a refusal to acknowledge a shameful part of history of the UK that is not that long ago in the past. Cofiwch Dryweryn! Cymru Rhydd!

The apology from Liverpool Council wasn't just too little too late- it was disingenuous. As this video shows, Liverpool's water needs were already met and were exceeded. The need to flood was one of greed, in order to sell water elsewhere. If Liverpool Council was genuine, they would've been honest in their apology.

I'm English and I'm definitely taking the Welsh side here

patriot to his country. English government should not have allowed that dam.

Born and raised in the Rhondda Valleys by a Welsh family who spoke no Welsh. I speak little Welsh - it was literally beaten out of my great grandmother (spoke it as her first language as a child) by her teachers. There is such a stinking attitude even amongst the Welsh of "Oh its a dead culture/language". It isnt dead, it is oppressed. That way of thinking is several generations old because it was forced into them. I work at an English company, and the amount of racist comments I receive is staggering. They think it is "harmless fun", as it is "only against the Welsh". It is often in simple conversation that I will say something that reflects where I was raised, and I get mocked. I will say a town name or the name of a friend and they will pretend to choke and mock how Welsh is written and spoken. It is so normalised amongst the English to be racist against the Welsh, Scots, Irish and even French that they don't even realise they do it and dont consider it racism as it has "nothing to do with skin colour". I never had Welsh pride growing up, I never understood why you would be proud of something you had no say or choice in. I didnt choose to be born and raised here, so why be proud? But as I have gotten into my twenties, I have learned more about my heritage, culture, language and histoy. I have learned how we have suffered at the hands of the Saes, and how we should apparently be ashamed of our culture, ashamed to say the town where we grew up and ashamed to want to identify as Welsh and not British. But I now proudly say I am a Welshman. I am learning the language, I am fighting back against the ingrained racism in the English by calling it out when I see it (or experience it), and I hope that one day Wales may stand on its own as an independent nation, with the ability to truly regain its identity. I cannot say I blame the men for their actions, I understand their frustration and that they felt felt the Welsh had no say over its own future.

I could have written this myself. Repressed language and culture. Spent my life growing up hating the welsh language and not knowing anything about the magic and myth in the veins of the land. Fast forward to my late twenties (now 36) and I am fully and deeply immersed in my culture heritage and land. I now know all about the mabinogi and the folklore of wales. I'm teaching my children too. I feel proud to be welsh and I am starting to learn the language. Welsh in school was shit. Boring and mind numbing. It killed it. I was born in caerphilly and still live near by today. I feel immense pride at being from the valleys and feel lucky to call this magical landscape home. Wales is a landscape full of myth, magic and culture. Yma o hyd. Fi godwn ni eto.

Labour have run Wales with the Welsh Nationalists for the last decade. The whole infrastructure from health care, to education has failed just check the statistics. England, Scotland, Northern Ireland have no problem if Wales wanted independence tomorrow. The problem that is always not talked about is the hostility between North, and South Wales. Both are have different cultures, and ideologies. You can tell just visiting, and talking to the citizens. To not take my word for it just visit the regions, and chat to the locals.

Welsh is a lovely language just like the Irish language
