Our Chartist Heritage

[Newport Rising @NewportRising]

November 4th will be 184 years since the hills and valleys of South Wales shook, not from the machinery of coal and iron, but from the footsteps of a people desperate for change.
Already more torches sold than in previous years - it's going to be exciting https://t.co/v0ZLbko2fN

[Jayne Bryant for Casnewydd Islwyn @JBryantWales]

Today we commemorate the Chartist Rising, which happened on this day in 1839. 

We remember the tragic events which occurred at the Westgate hotel, and those who came in the dark to pay tribute to the 22 killed in the name of democracy.

[Newport Rising @NewportRising]

Every year we gather to remember the 22 men who died fighting for democracy on November 4th 1839.
This year we asked for reflections on how the actions of the Chartists continue to impact our lives today.
Join us at 6pm to view this memorial piece. https://t.co/6rUnWaNron
