Berlin Wall reflections - Ruth Bakke



Ruth Bakke, a member of the American Church in Berlin and a long-time resident of Berlin, shared thoughts on changes that have taken place since the Berlin Wall fell in 1989.

In this clip, the school teacher reflects on the openness and energy that have resulted. She comments, "We need to get rid of barriers -- we need to be open to each other and welcoming, and you can't do that with a wall."

Ben,
Good job. Well done. I'm sure that wind was tough to deal with. However, I can still hear what she is saying and the clip works well.
