Keeping the struggle alive - Grass Roots




ORCHID ISLAND, Taiwan (AP)

Trying to keep the Culture of the Tao aborigines of Taiwan's Orchid Island on these 23 ft. boats. The boat somehow is fasten by these wooden planks from different types of trees on the island and not having 1 single nail or bolt to keep it in place. Talking about keeping it OG.

The struggle lives on as the Tao tribesmen try to keep the tradition alive since most of the men have been moving toward city life in Taiwan and its becoming more difficult to teach the children.

It gets harder and harder these days on keeping traditions alive.
