Silence Is Deadly

"First they came..." by Martin Niemöller First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— 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. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. *** "First they came…revisited" by Dennis Spilchuk First they came for the unborn, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a woman. Then they came for the children, and I did not speak out— Because I had no children. Then they came for the Trump supporters and I did not speak out— Because I was not political. Then they came for the unvaccinated—and no one spoke out for me. ***
