Friedrich Niemöller

Friedrich Niemöller

Friedrich Gustav Emil Martin Niemöller, born 14 January 1892 and died 6 March 1984, was a German anti-Nazi theologian and Lutheran pastor. He is best known for his statement:

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 remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.
Friedrich Gustav Emil Martin Niemöller

He was a national conservative and initially a supporter of Adolf Hitler, but he became one of the founders of the Confessional Church, which opposed the nazification of German Protestant churches.

He vehemently opposed the Nazis' Aryan Paragraph.

For his opposition to the Nazis' state control of the churches, Niemöller was imprisoned in Sachsenhausen and Dachau concentration camps from 1937 to 1945.[

He narrowly escaped execution and survived imprisonment. After his imprisonment, he expressed his deep regret about not having done enough to help the victims of the Nazis.
