Script
Did you know that on a historic night in Berlin, Germany, thousands of people gathered at the Berlin Wall, which had divided their city for nearly three decades? The air was electric with hope and excitement as chants of "Wir sind ein Volk!" echoed through the streets. Floodlights illuminated the wall, its gray surface covered in colorful graffiti, with messages of defiance, sorrow, and longing for freedom. But what's even more amazing is that just hours before, the East German government had announced that it would allow East Germans to travel to the West, effective immediately, and the crowd was waiting to see if the border guards would actually open the gates.
