Revolt

First they came for the Jews

and I did not speak out

because I was not a Jew

Then they came for the communists

and I did not speak out

because I was not a communist

Then they came for the trade unionists

and I did not speak out

because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for me

and there was no one left

to speak out for me

Pastor Neimoeller

Victim of the Nazis
