Lately, I have been finding myself thinking that we are in a Martin Niemöller moment! He was a German Lutheran pastor (1892–1984). He is renowned for his 1946 post war poem that critiqued the silent elite inclusive of clergy who remained silent in the face of injustice and oppression of Nazi Germany. Some days, I believe we should take a break from all the preaching and sit with this piece of writing. Here goes: First, they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out, because I was not a socialist.
