Berlin Prepares For 30th Anniversary Of The Fall Of The Berlin Wall

BERLIN, GERMANY - OCTOBER 31: A worker with the Los Angeles, California-based artist group Poetic Kinetics attaches a message written on a ribbon to an installation by artist Patrick Shearn that will be part of celebrations marking the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on October 31, 2019 in Berlin, Germany. The installation contains thousands of colorful ribbons, many of them bearing messages by people on their thoughts regarding communism, that will hang over 17th of June Street near the Brandenburg Gate. November 9 will mark the 30th anniversary of the opening of the Berlin Wall that quickly led to the collapse of the communist East German government. Revolutions across other communist countries of the East Bloc soon followed. (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images)
