Question

History2. Chooseoneof the above-named artists (or a graffiti artist who has worked within Berlin) and discuss his/her importance with regard to the socio/economic issues that define both the past as well as contemporary society. Your essay should be comprised of 4-5 typewritten pages, double-spaced, #12 font only (a size similar to Times New Roman as a larger font/spacing will result in the loss of points). I would advise that you use spelling & grammar in MSWord (or similar) and avoid the passive voice.

Around 5,000 individuals are believed to have attempted to escape over the wall, with at least 200 individuals dying in the process, according to reports.
