Remember this poem by Pastor Martin Niemller. Adolf HItler had him spent 7 years in concentraton camps after speaking out.
When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.
When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.
When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.
When they came for the Jews,
I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn't a Jew.
When they came for the sick,
the so-called incurables, I didn't speak up,
because I wasn’t mentally ill.
When they came for the Catholics, I didn't
speak up because I was a Protestant.
When they came for me,
there was no-one left to speak out.
This can be you as the audists are coming for you!
Audism spreads while good Deaf people do nothing!
