I have nothing to hide. Let them watch me.

Please read about Martin Niemoller's life at the websitwe above.


Martin Niemöller (1892-1984) was a prominent Protestant pastor who emerged as an outspoken public foe
of Adolf Hitler and spent the last seven years of Nazi rule in concentration camps.

Niemöller is perhaps best remembered for the quotation:

Quote: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.


Could we replace those names with different ones of today?
