Yesterday was German Unity Day, which marked the unification between East and West Germany. In this Coffee Connection episode, Hanni Geist speaks with her DAAD colleague John Paul Kleiner who is responsible for our Canada office in Toronto and who is also a historian with a special interest in the GDR (East Germany). John Paul is the creator of the blog GDR Objectified where he presents his collection of objects produced in, or related closely to, the German Democratic Republic (GDR)with the aim of providing a window into East German history in a historical and/or personal way.

Happy German Unity Day! 🎉 Today marks the anniversary of Germany's reunification in 1990, a celebration of freedom, democracy, and the strength of unity.
