“For many people the 2009 Festival of Lights brought back many memories, but in addition to this it represented a symbol for unity, freedom and the way in which barriers can be overcome. Many of those who attended had themselves participated in the demonstrations 20 years earlier, while the Festival of Lights enabled others to experience for themselves the force of the non-violent movement for freedom and democracy in the autumn of ’89. ” (Source: https://english.leipzig.de/services-and-administration/autumn-89/the-9th-october-2009/festival-of-lights)
