Discussion: 
Hitler was an elected official!   What?!?! , , ,
                When there are problems - money issues, a plan doesn't work out, crops fail, etc.- people often
                            try to find someone to blame
                       Germany was having difficulties, Hitler and other leaders wanted to find someone or a group
                             to blame for the country's problems

Read  together:
    
First they came for the Socialists,
and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Socialist.



Then they came for the Trade Unionists,
and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.


Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.
