In the 1960s and 1970s, many tens of thousands of Taiwanese went
into self-exile; most of them headed to the United States.
The people who became Taiwanese-Americans did so for a variety
of reasons, but it's probably fair to say most were seeking
opportunities more readily available in a democratic, free
society. Taiwan in the 1960s and '70s was a place where freedom
of expression -- be it in art or politics -- was severely
limited. One of these exiles was Wu Li-pei (吳澧培), a Taiwan
independence campaigner. Here's part two of his story.


And make sure to read Wu's memoir if you're interested in Taiwan
politics. The book contains plenty of "sensitive" details and
other behind-the-scenes insights.
