Catalyst 10

Thursday 22 January 2015

CATALYSTS ARE DUE TOMORROW. Make sure you have them all completed and in your journal (make sure your catalysts are in their own journal). You can staple, tape, or paste in ones you originally wrote on other pages. Don’t forget to also paste your multiple intelligences results in your catalyst journal.

Choose one of the following to respond to (or both):

A.

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter.”

– MLK Jr.

What do you think of this quotation? What type of things are people silent about? Why do you think they remain silent? Does this make you think of any other quotations? How does this apply to your life?

B. “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.”

– Martin Niemoller
