Tuesday, 13 December 2011 12:42 Published in Visual & Performance Arts
July 1865. A single tea clipper, The Mimosa, set sail from Liverpool to the west coast of Argentina carrying with it the hopes of 153 pioneers from Wales, 8000 miles away. Their journey was the dream of the revolutionary idealist Michael Jones – a desperate bid to secure a homeland for the people and language of Wales, under assault from the neighbouring English.
