When the Real Wall Came Tumbling Down

Apropos of my post last week about Chancellor Merkel’s unseemly appeal before a joint session of Congress, calling on us to tear down the metaphorical wall holding us back from committing economic suicide and institutionalizing socialism here where all other attempts have (largely) failed, please note CEI’s effort celebrating today’s 20th anniversary of the Berlin Wall coming down.

Today, on the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, CEI offers a video telling the story of the day that liberty triumphed over the death and oppression wrought by Communism. I hope you will post it, write about it, or send it around, especially for those among us who are too young to remember it first-hand. Also, let me know what you think of our video effort to convey this crucial story in a few brief minutes.

View the video on CEI’s YouTube channel.) 

Read about the significance of this Berlin Wall anniversary — “one of the greatest in the history of human freedom” — in an OpenMarket.org note by CEI President Fred L. Smith, Jr.
