“We Are Still Here”: Rediscovering the Taokas (ft. Kaisanan Ahuan) | #InTaiwanWeSpeak

“Intermarried and disappeared.” This is what some textbooks say about the Taokas, one of many unrecognised Indigenous groups of Taiwan’s western plains. This used to puzzle Kaisanan Ahuan as a student, but now he is actively advocating for the recognition of his people. “We are still here,” he says, as he shares his people’s forgotten history of anti-Dutch resistance, wars, and forced migration.
