Please join us on Monday, November 27, 2023 to welcome our Guest Speaker, Dennis Molnar. He will address the Society on “Living Behind the Berlin Wall”.
What was it like to live behind the Berlin Wall? Why did men and women become informants and spy on their spouses, children and friends? What were conditions really like in the Stasi Secret Police jail? Come and meet a Lady who lived behind the Wall, a Man jailed by the Stasi and visit the Stasi jail. See rare photos and learn the deep secret why the Wall finally came down.
