Please invite your representative and senators to the September 14th Congressional screening of Formosa Betrayed!

Hi everyone,

The Formosa Foundation is organizing a Congressional Screening of the film Formosa Betrayed in coordination with Taiwanese Americans from across the country. The event will take place on Monday, September 14, 2009, starting at 6:30 p.m. at The Newseum. The event is open to Members of Congress and their staff only.

Please contact your representative and senators and tell them how important it is for them to attend this event. You can call up the office or e-mail them using the online contact form found on their websites.

Why is their attendance important?

The movie sheds light on our current relationship with Taiwan, and also takes a critical look at the formulation of U.S. foreign policy. The screening is designed to raise awareness about the historic struggle of Taiwanese and their Americans friends to build a democratic society. We strongly believe that a better understanding of history will foster increased mutual understanding and greater dialogue, as well as highlight the importance of building democracy in Taiwan and around the globe.

Please make sure that Congress understands that this film is incredibly important to the Taiwanese-American community.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Warmest regards,

Julia Famularo
