What does the fall of the ‘die Berliner Mauer‘ (the Berlin Wall) on Nov 9, 1989 and the end of the Cold War got to do with the Climate Justice Fast (CJF)?
What can the Wall teach us about the effectiveness of political action in general, and a hunger strike in particular?
Everything!
The reason lies in the intersection between these quotes:
“What experience and history teaches us is that people and governments have never learned anything from history, or acted on principles deduced from it”
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
