Portsmouth Diocesan Council for Social Responsibility
- Engaging with the world in the Diocese of Portsmouth and speaking out for those who cannot find a voice.
“In Germany they first came for the Communists and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me and by that time no one was left to speak.”
Pastor Martin Niemoller
Niemoller was a German Lutheran pastor imprisoned for his outspoken anti Nazi views in 1937. He was offered release on certain conditions, but preferred instead to stick to his convictions.
