by Jeff Paterson, Not in Our Name (jeff [at] paterson.net)
A roving mini-rally thru San Francisco today marked the third annual National Day of Solidarity with Muslim, Arab & South Asian Immigrants. Following a press conference in Chinatown, the mini-rally stopped in the Tenderloin and the Mission.

First they 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, but by that time, no one was left to speak up.
- Pastor Martin Niemoeller, Nazi Germany
