   Abstract:
   The essay profiles five artists and activists from Cheju Island and narrates their work and commitment to keeping the legacies of the vi cti ms of the i nfamous Chej u 4. 3 Inci dent al i ve i n publ i c di scourse. Thei r acti vi sm, embedded i n l ocal hi story and memory, is potentially transnational and archipelagic, inter-referencing and resonating with similar atrocities and related politics of memory and redress in Taiwan’s 2.28 Incident as well as the Battle of Okinawa. Together, each use their own methods and experienced to negotiate and resist nationalist historical revision and capitalist speculation, whose acts erase the voices of the dead.
