尋找一個叫做家的地方

我訪問到的阿嬤也有在高度人力密集的產業中工作過，如餐飲、紡織等等，反映了當代大環境中原民來到都市的處境。都市原民作為台灣產業發展的推手之一，卻無法擁有安身立命的家，而被迫在各處流浪，直到近代才開啟了與政府溝通的橋樑，卻依然有種種難題需要克服。

這次主要聊的是阿嬤們的遷移旅程，我們主要訪問到的是一對姊妹，年齡相差兩歲，在小學的時候因為有仲介介紹，一同來到台北工作。

以下是他們的遷移過程：
台東-花蓮-台北（有仲介介紹台北的工作，但很多人受騙被賣到妓院）-桃園-台北-新竹
小學因經濟因素離開台東，搭巴士到花蓮，再搭火車到台北（大概民國57年）

當你在搜尋器上打出那魯灣 新竹，會看到標題幾乎都是『全新開放絕美地景遊戲場！「那魯灣文化聚落」玩超快溜滑梯 』等等的文章，當你真正進去這個所謂『文化聚落』後，會發現原來這只是當權者的一種企圖，那魯灣所面臨的困境並非藉由地景遊戲場可以解決，但我發現這是一種政府慣用手法，將完全脫離脈絡的建築蓋在想要宣傳的地點上，當天進入社區後所看到的是兩種截然不同的景色，一方面可以理解政府為什麼需要對當地做重劃

This was our first time interviewing members of our tribal family, and we had the pleasure of interviewing three grandmothers.

Seismic St. Louis

I'm interested in better understanding the ongoing geological processes that shape St. Louis and the Mississippi Valley region. So far, I've been looking into the history of seismicity in the region, focusing on the fascinating but little known history of the New Madrid earthquakes of 1811 and 1812 -- the most devastating earthquakes to have hit the US east of the Rockies. I've also been exploring how St. Louis and surrounding areas are dealing with the possibility of another earthquake occurring in the future. According to one article I read, one of the biggest uncertainties is what would happen to the heavily engineered Mississippi River in the case of another major tremblor. The shaking could break the levees, flooding wide areas along the river and creating cascading effects. The flow of the river might also reverse completely, as occurred during the New Madrid earthquakes.

On these possibilities and the lack of scientific consensus surrounding intraplate seismicity in this zone, see this article in The Atlantic.

On current efforts to create earthquake hazard maps in St. Louis, see this overview on the US Geological Survey site.

For a deeper dive into the history of the New Madrid earthquakes, see this book by historian of science Conevery Bolton Valencius.

The authors primarily rely on anecdotal evidence provided through interviews and testimonies presented by disaster survivors. They supplement this anecdotal evidence with data from analysis of the socioeconomic conditions following a disaster and from analysis of the mental health disorders suffered by patients who were affected by the disaster.
