Constitution of Fianna na h-Alba (Scottish Youth Association)
Date:
1940 to 1950
Description:
Leaflet of the Fianna na h-Alba (Scottish Youth Association), calling for people to join and fight against Anglo-Americanisation by learning Gaelic. At a time when Scotland was very much part of a Britain united in the war effort and maintaining its unity in opposition to the enemy, certain young men and women felt uneasy with this Britishness. Around 1940 the Fianna na h-Alba was formed in Glasgow by Harry Miller and Drummy Henderson. Based at 181 Pitt Street, Glasgow, below a brothel, the association brought together people from all walks of life who had an interest in outdoor activities, Scottish culture and, in most cases, politics.
