The Trees That Remember: A Memorial in Berlin

Some memorials are built in stone. Others are planted.
After the Berlin Wall fell, artist Ben Wagin created a living tribute on the very ground that once divided a city – a quiet space where trees, fragments of the Wall, and engraved granite slabs stand together in memory of those who died trying to cross. It's called the Parliament of Trees, and it still grows in the shadow of power, just steps from the German Parliament.
Tonight’s episode is about that place – what it meant, what it still means, and why choosing something living as a memorial says more than any monument could. It's about memory, resistance, and what happens when we choose life over order. Let the trees hold your thoughts, and settle in.
