德州首府 Austin的 Asian American Resource Center 是屬於 Austin Park & Recreation,不是私人機構,它包括約50個國家。在它September 28, 2013 grand opening有限的 exhibit panel 中 ,很高興主辦單位有選上一張1970s Austin 臺灣同鄉會照片。

值得一提的是在照片下寫的 text (主辦單位寫的),他們居然能領略出我向他們對早期臺灣同鄉會背景的說明,而寫出這樣有歷史意義的 text。The text is as follows :

The photo had to be kept secret for many years. Taken in the 1970s, it shows an early gathering of the Austin Taiwanese Association. Like most Asian immigrants during the Cold War, the Taiwanese left a nation ruled by an oppressive government. Many Taiwanese in Texas were spied upon by Republic of China government agents who sought to silence dissidents, such as those who promoted Taiwanese independence.
