The Crime of Silence

The Crime of Silence is a thought-provoking book written by Orison Swett Marden. This book delves into the idea that remaining silent in the face of wrongdoing is just as bad as committing the wrong itself. Marden argues that staying silent when we see injustice, cruelty, and wrongdoing is a crime against humanity. He believes that we have a moral obligation to speak out against injustice and to use our voices to advocate for those who cannot speak for themselves.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores different aspects of the theme of silence. Marden uses real-life examples to illustrate his points and to show how silence can lead to terrible consequences. He also provides practical advice on how to overcome the fear of speaking out and how to become an effective advocate for justice.Throughout the book, Marden emphasizes the importance of taking action and using our voices to make a difference in the world. He argues that we all have the power to make a positive impact on the world around us, but that we must first be willing to speak up and take a stand against injustice.Overall, The Crime of Silence is a powerful and inspiring book that challenges readers to examine their own actions and to consider the role that silence plays in perpetuating injustice. It is a must-read for anyone who is passionate about social justice and who wants to make a positive impact on the world.1915.
