Here is an rather famous Anti Nazi poem I learned for today.
This poem is very relevant to what is currently happening in the USA, Europe
and elsewhere. Fear of the other, fear of those that are different than you,
immigrants, other religions,
people with different cultures, languages and skin colour. We all need to fight
bigotry, nativism, homophobia, misogyny and racial prejudice.
------------First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then 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 out for me.
