Subject: protesters occupy Taiwan legislature (3)
***********************************************************

There is an excellent summary of the Taiwan legislature protests by Kerim
Friedman, an anthropologist teaching in Taiwan, posted to his blog site,
Savageminds.

http://savageminds.org/2014/03/22/sunflower-student-movement/

Friedman makes reference to J. Michael Cole’s reporting, which is probably
the most informed so far.

 
The statement that 38 police officers have been injured which appears in
the CNN article posted earlier is almost certainly fabricated. It was
first reported in Want China Times, a fiercely pro-Beijing source. All
other indications are that this has been a very civil and respectful
protest.
