Original Caption
"The sign commemorates the revolution in Romania in December 1989, when nearly a thousand people were killed in a violent crackdown by the Ceauşescu regime. I saw this sign for the first time when I travelled to East Berlin on 26 December 1989, after having been banned from the GDR for many years."
