I have opened this part of the forum to give our visiting guests an opportunity to air their thoughts and suggestions on the upcoming 40th anniversary commemoration of the 5th of October 1968 civil rights march that took place in Derry.If you were on the march that day i would love to hear your recollections of it. If you would prefer to email me your recollection i would be delighted to publish it on the civil rights section of the website (hugo@springtowncamp.com).  |
