THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

The price of silence was the
Warsaw ghetto. Bergen-
Belserr. Auschwitz. Dachau.
Buchenwald.
Freedom demands vigilance.
Whatever happens to Jews
anywhere happens to Jews
everywhere.
The price of silence was
horror, tragedy, cruelty. And,
for six million Jews, for -
millions of others, the price
of silence was death.
Long before the terrible
price was paid, there were
warnings. We could not
believe them. We did not
heed them. Inevitably, words
of hate became deeds of
savagery.
Now thirty years after the
horrible revelations of the
death camps, the old words
of hate are heard once again.
The signs can be seen.
The warnings can be heard.
They must not be ignored.
Silence can mean extinction.
This is no time to be silent.
This is the time to give voice
to our concern and our
compassion.
Speak through us and you
address those human needs
which demand attention. You
bring help to newly arrived
immigrants in Israel.
You bring hope and comfort`
to those who need us here in
our community. Speak
through us and you speak to
all Jews everywhere who
need help now.
Speak with a gift.
Speak now, so that we
never again pay
the price of silence.
We Are One
