"We Will Not Be Silent" was the slogan of the White Rose group. They were brave Germans who resisted the Nazis during their rise to power. Today, their memory has been defamed but US transport officials.
An architect wearing a black T-shirt with the slogan "We Will Not Be Silent" was forced to change his shirt or not be allowed to board a JetBlue flight from NY to California. The reason? Well the slogan was printed in both English and Arabic, and he was of Middle-Eastern descent. This action by authorities is exactly the reason every patriotic American should wear a similar shirt. To be denied the freedom to express ideals, even through something as trivial as a T-shirt are protected as FREE SPEECH in this country, or at least used to be. Now, the sad state of affairs is that they are not.
