Help the 1916 Socialist Commemoration

national | miscellaneous | news report

Friday April 18, 2003 19:04

by Labour Youth

Report this post to the editors

1916 has been hijacked by the Sinners as their rebellion. It was not. James Connolly, the founder of the Labour Party, was commendant of the ICA and vice president of the proposed Republic. The rising wasn't simply about kicking the Brits out but having an independant socialist Ireland with equal rights and oppertunities for all.

Labour Youth is calling on all left wing an progressive forces to help commemorate the 1916 rising this sunday. We must not let the spirit of creating a new Ireland be drowned out by sectarian organisations.

We know Labour is seen as an establishment party and i won't list all the things we've done in this country to disprove this notion; but still we must all be united and proud of our socialist history.

We are meeting at 11.30 at Liberty Hall to march to the GPO. This is the original route of the Irish Citizen Army which Connolly set up.

All left wing and progressive forces are welcome. This rising is part of our communal history. It must not be seen as a 'Sinner thing' only.

Reclaim your past. Be at Liberty hall on Easter Sunday at 11:30.
