50th Anniversary of Berlin Wall

 Today is the 50th Anniversary of the building of a wall that separated German's Capital on 1961. A video shows how the wall was made and looked. (Click here to see the video) Overnight families were separated, job opportunities in West Berlin was lost. For 28 years the Berlin Wall stood as a symbol of Cold War. A lot of times people would get jobs in West Berlin and live in East Berlin because it was cheaper. To read more about the wall go to History.com (Berlin Wall Built).
