長大之後就知道《漢聲》這個1970年開始的文化機構,服務的對象當然是想像的「中華民族」與「中國」,不是今日的台灣。 這不代表他們累積的資產沒有價值,或是否認它是一代人的共同記憶。 仔細看過一輪,倒是重新發現《小百科》的內容編採比例與深度上意外的本土化?野生動物與地質的篇幅完全以台灣為中心,古蹟與文化活動等也是台灣在地的。還有一些當年應該屬於進步派的議題篇幅,例如有機農業或是環保意識。 比起自己搭飛機自願搬家的移民,這些因為時代變化而被迫原地「文化移民」的人,有時心境是更艱難的。不知道漢聲過去55年,是不是曾有這些內部矛盾的爭論。
《小百科》的介紹頁(1984?)期許讀者「做個護士保國的中國人」但本次展覽的文案將1970年的創辦人形容成「懷抱著『讓世界看見台灣』的夢想」

It is an unusual time with unusual content printed on the unassuming free newspaper, found in front of the Japanese grocer. I am less surprised after finding out Nichi Bei News bears the newspaper of the same name between 1899 to 1942, killed the last time […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

想不出來是哪來的資金贊助這種匿名頻道,也想不出來它到底想要影響哪裡的哪類選民。 頻道的國家/地區是設定在台灣。

I went to a fundraiser for the Formosan Association for Public Affairs (FAPA), the Taiwanese Americans political advocacy group in DC. Having to organize like Ukrainians is an uncomfortable realization of mine. I wish my generation could raise to the occasion.
