Invitation to Attend 228
Justice and Peace Memorial Service
 
 
You are cordially invited to attend the Washington-based 228 Justice and Peace Memorial Service.  The service this year is to be held at Taiwanese Presbyterian Church of Washington (7410 Needwood Road, Derwood, Maryland 20855) on SundayFebruary 28, 2016 beginning 10:00 A.M. and ending 3:00 P.M.  Detailed programs are as follows:
 
1.    228 Memorial Worship (10:00 A.M. – 11:15 A.M.)
2.    Free Lunch for all participants (11:30 A.M. – 12:30 Noon)
3.    228 Speech (12:30 Noon – 1:20 P.M.)
4.    228 Concert (1:30 P.M. – 2:40 P.M.)
5.    Refreshments (Immediately after the concert)
 
228 Memorial Service is to commemorate a spontaneous uprising throughout the island of Taiwan beginning February 28, 1947.  That uprising was to protest Chinese Occupation Authority against its extreme economic exploitation and political oppression.  The Chinese Authority countered the legitimate discontent (uprising) with a series of massacre, murdering more than 20 thousand local elites.  This event awakened a strong sense of common destiny and nationhood among the people of Taiwan.
    
We are fortunate to have Dr. Lung-chu Chen serve as this year’s keynote speaker.  He will speak on “The Lessons of the 228 Incident:  Past, Present, and Future.”   Professor Chen is a world renowned international law scholar, teaching Contemporary International Law and American Constitutional Law for nearly 40 years at New York Law School.   In addition, he has had a long affiliation with Yale Law School since 1961, as a graduate student (LL.M. and J.S.D.), Research Associate, Senior Research Associate, and Senior Research Scholar. He frequently writes on the subject of international law and the subject of Taiwan.  In 2015, his book entitled “An Introduction to Contemporary International Law:  A Policy-Oriented Perspective” (Third Edition) was published by Oxford University Press.  Next month (March 2016) Oxford University Press will again publish his new book on “The U.S.-Taiwan-China Relationship in International Law and Policy.”
 
In the concert program, in addition to choruses to be performed by several local musical groups, we invite top musicians of Taiwan origin currently residing in the United States.  We are confident that this program will be one of the best you can expect in your lifetime.   We happily encourage you not to miss this great opportunity.
 
For further information, kindly reach Charles Kuo (Tel:  240-821-0238), Gilbert Wang (Tel: 202-413-4235), or Neng-Hsiang Wang (202-554-4314 or 202-479-0744).
