Checkpoint Charlie


At a press conference, an unintentional answer to a question suddenly change the world, causing the Berlin Wall collapses overnight. Checkpoint Charlie watches the Germans celebrate their newfound freedoms. 
I'll like to hear the testimonies of those Deaf who crosses the border thirty years ago. This is probably the only instance where the divided Deaf community united as one. 
Actually the KGB plans to send in the tanks but Gorbachev refuses to allow that, letting history unfold itself. Putin was in Dresden at that time, already knew that it was the beginning of the fall of the Soviet Union. President Putin is now trying to reverse course to restore its glorious past. 
A statue of Reagan was was send to Berlin, but the city has no vacant spot to erect the statue so now it stands on the roof of our embassy. 

This is Smokey stay tuned for the next episode of Deaf Anthology, Good Night Deaf America.
