World, it’s high time you listened to Taiwan’s story ft. Vanessa Hope

World, you should not only care about Taiwan because we’re viewed as a “potential flash point for World War III.” This is also emphasized by my guest Venessa Hope, director and producer of Invisible Nation, a powerful documentary about Taiwan, featuring Taiwan’s first ever female president, Tsai Ing-wen. This is part 2 of my interview with Vanessa. How did Taiwan get rid of its authoritarian rule led by Chiang Kai-shek, whose regime brought about a 38-year long martial law in Taiwan? How has Taiwan transformed from all of that with the past 4 decades? Invisible Nation is also a documentary with a humorous and human touch to it – it teared me up twice. Also, how the documentary ended is also a strong message to the audience and to the world: Taiwan should have the final say of who we are and what we want. Hit play and let’s get back to it!  Follow the latest updates of Invisible Nation on Instagram @invisiblenationtw and head to the next screening near you!
