Words have power and sometimes they are needed and needed
desperately….
Yesterday was one of those times when words needed to be
strong and clear and yet they failed, and failed horribly to address the
situation in hand…..
Do you think for a moment that someday, somehow you will
not be different than the rest, who will speak for you?
First they came for the Socialists, and
I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then
they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then
they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Because I was not a Jew.
Then
they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)
