On this day, November 10, 1989, Germany began tearing down the Berlin Wall, a historic moment that symbolized the end of the Cold War and the reunification of East and West Germany. Built in 1961, the Berlin Wall had divided families and symbolized the ideological divide between communism and democracy. As the wall came down, it marked a new era of freedom and unity in Germany and inspired hope worldwide.

Who remembers seeing or hearing about the fall of the Berlin Wall? Did this event make a lasting impact on you?
