Justice - Speak Up

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak up because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak up because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak up because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak up for me.

-German poet Niemoller
