The Irish held their children from going to school for two years. This is documented by Padraic Pearse the famous Irish Revolutionary who wrote about this with great eloquence. Pearse wrote: "The educational system the English have instituted in Ireland is a Murder Machine; the schools are soulless and instead of teaching they destroy; they cannot make men but they can break them. We will keep the children home instead sending them to the murder machine called schools". Two things should stand out to you after reading these: 1) that when people are faced with the evils of colonialism, they must protect their children from it and, 2) that holding back children from a filthy educational system was not invented by the Southern Cameroons freedom fighters. It dates back more than a thousand years.
