I will introduce the trajectory of the “Third Generation Takao Family” leading up to a cultural figure of the Tsou Tribe, an indigenous Taiwanese people, and his daughters and grandchildren. Takayoshi, who survived before and after the war, sought freedom and autonomy as an educator, thinker, musician, and poet, and was killed as a victim of white terrorism. After her father's death, Takagikuka, hid her real name and became a singer as “Panana,” and while shining on the front stage, she was used politically, and lived a life where she was forced to remain silent. Also, in modern times, my grandchildren have inherited their grandfather's spirit as musicians, and their memories of Taiwan and indigenous culture are echoing around the world. You can experience the history of human rights in Taiwan from the path of one family through letters, suicide notes, musical scores, photographs, video materials, etc. addressed to families from prison.
