Ad I Berlin celebrates 35 years of the fall of the Wall along the former border with Berlin’s largest band⁠
⁠
35 years ago, courageous people brought down the Berlin Wall and shortly afterwards the SED dictatorship. To commemorate this significant historical event, Berlin will be transformed into a stage of remembrance and encounters on November 8 and 9 with an impressive 4km-long open-air installation, exhibitions, a diverse program and the highlight of the anniversary: the Festival for Freedom. ⁠
⁠
The Festival for Freedom with Berlin’s biggest band will take place on November 9 at 8 pm, with DJ sets starting at 7 pm. Almost 700 musicians have been preparing for this event for weeks. On November 9, they will come together on the former Wall strip - spread over five locations along the open-air installation - and play the soundtrack of freedom in sync with songs from Silly to Bowie, from Patti Smith to Westernhagen. The entire route along the open-air installation will become a stage and everyone is invited to sing along and celebrate freedom and democracy together.⁠
⁠
During the day on November 9, from 12 noon to 7 pm, there will be a varied and entertaining program at 5 locations along the installation, from readings, talks and concerts to hands-on activities and much more, including the Berlin Pub Choir, Sebastian Krumbiegel, Romano, Bonaparte, the East Fluencer Olivia Schneider and the podcast “Grenzgänger - Die Geschichte des Berlin-Sounds”.⁠

PANEL: Beyond Human Control: The impact of the Drone War on Civilians

With: Chantal Meloni (Criminal Lawyer, ECCHR & Professor, University of Milan, IT/DE), Khalil Dewan (Head of Investigations, Stoke White Investigations, UK), Emran Feroz (Journalist and Author, AF/AT/DE). Moderated by John Goetz (Investigative Journalist, NDR, US/DE) This panel addresses the legal and political implications of drone strikes. For over 10 years, NGOs, civil society organisations, victims’ representatives, in partnership with the affected communities on the ground, have denounced the unlawfulness of the drone war from the international law and human rights law perspective. They also filed several legal interventions, in the USA and in Germany, in Italy, in the UK and other countries, to achieve more transparency and assess the responsibilities for such unlawful operations, including State-administrative law and individual-criminal law responsibilities. The hurdles encountered in this kind of litigation are enormous and often result in the impossibility for the victims to achieve any justice. Chantal Meloni will present a number of cases – some of them ongoing – that, notwithstanding the difficulties, are worth being told and analysed carefully. She will discuss the involvement of air bases in Europe in the US drone program, such as the US military bases like Ramstein in Germany and Sigonella in Italy, that bear shared responsibility for allowing their territory to be used to facilitate US drone strikes. Khalil Dewan will focus on the legal ramifications of using AI and autonomy within the kill cloud vis-à-vis international law for targeted killings and drone strikes. Specifically, he will introduce the armed reaper drone, that is more than just 'fibre-glass' hovering in the sky-line: it is network-centric warfare which is moving beyond human control to the inclusion of artificial intelligence (AI) and lethal autonomous weapon systems (LAWs) in locating targets, making lethal decisions and permitting the use of multi-strike capability for a numb
