商品簡介
After the 228 Incident in 1947, in which thousands of Taiwanese civilians were arrested, executed, or disappeared by the KMT regime, martial law was declared in 1949, and Taiwan suffered under a decades-long “White Terror”, the collective trauma of which Taiwan the country has yet to fully recover from. In the larger context of international human rights, we have time and time again witnessed the massacre of civilians brought by the government’s abuse of the national apparatus: the Cultural Revolution and Tiananmen Square Massacre in China, the Jeju Uprising and Gwangju Uprising in South Korea, Pol Pot’s massacres of the Cambodian people under the Khmer Rouge, Augusto Pinochet’s bloody crackdowns on dissidents in Chile — these are all lessons which mankind must remember, so that such tragic histories may never repeat. If Taiwanese fail to remember history and remain ignorant of human rights, this will result in the nation becoming collectively lost. How can we learn from the lessons of history, when such history — as fragmentary as it might be — is erased from our memory? How can we collectively heal our wounds? The present exhibition aims to connect the universal values of freedom, human rights, and democracy with Taiwan’s history, covering the 228 Incident and Taiwan’s democratization, the rise of a national consciousness, and the right of free speech lifting the taboo of the 228 Incident, in a portrayal of mankind’s constant strive in this grand spiritual and historical legacy. The exhibition consists of four parts: “The 228 Incident and Taiwan’s democratization”, “Breaking the taboos of authoritarianism”, “Profiles of key figures in international freedom and human rights”, and “An overview of museums for human rights and peace in Asia”. The combined effort of all Taiwanese is needed to mend the wounds of the 228 Incident, and we hope to bring a positive outlook as we look back on the past with an honest eye, and boldly face the challenges of our future.
