If you didn’t know that the KMT government killed about 20,000 Taiwanese people in a one-month span in early 1947 and imprisoned about 140,000 more during the 40 years after, that’s no accident. In Part 1 of a 2-part series, we share what we’ve learned from our research about the 228 Massacre and the period of martial law afterward called White Terror designed to silence and erase. Trigger warnings: violence, police/military brutality, totalitarian government.
