BRIDGE TO LIBERATION 2022

“Tonight was all about personal stories. Stories full of hope and
responsibility. The Second World War is and remains a low point in our history. A low point full of lessons for now and in the future.

Just like this special bridge, let us continue to connect! Connecting by talking to each other, really seeing each other, learning from each other and reaching out to each other.

Over the past three years we have experienced how much we need each other and how we can maintain hope when we may bear suffering together.

We can be the change ourselves. We can make the world the way we wish it to be. We are the people who have to do it.”
