And engraving of the poem by Martin Niemoeller, at the Holocaust Memorial in Boston.
Will there one day be a memorial that says;
"First they came for people of colour,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a person of colour,
then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.
then they came for the feminists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a feminist.
then they came for the gay and transgender people,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't gay or transgender.
then they came for me,
and by that time no one was left to speak up."
