The sentence that features an allusion is:

“Young people behind the Iron Curtain would see Selma and eventually tear down that wall.”

This sentence alludes to the "Iron Curtain," a term commonly used to refer to the division between Eastern and Western Europe during the Cold War, as well as the historical event of the Berlin Wall's fall, implying a connection between the civil rights movement and the broader struggle for freedom and democracy.
