Salvation Army goes woke, demands donors 'apologize' for their whiteness
Quote:As the holiday season brings the familiar sight of Salvation Army red buckets by storefronts, the charity is demanding that white people donate more than coins this year: they want a "sincere" apology to black people.

The Christian charity has implemented critical race theory-based teachings for its donors, and its Alexandria-based leadership created an "International Social Justice Commission," which has developed and released a "resource" to "educate" its white donors, volunteers and employees.

In a document obtained by Central Nova News titled "Let's Talk About Racism," they state that Christianity is inherently racist, and that white people need to "lament, repent and apologize for biases or racist ideologies held and actions committed."

"Many have come to believe that we live in a post-racial society, but racism is very real for our brothers and sisters who are refused jobs and housing, denied basic rights and brutalized and oppressed simply because of the color of their skin," one lesson explains. "There is an urgent need for Christians to evaluate racist attitudes and practices in light of our faith, and to live faithfully in today's world."

In an accompanying worksheet titled "Study Guide on Racism," they argue that "The subtle nature of racism is such that people who are not consciously racist easily function with the privileges, empowerment and benefits of the dominant ethnicity, thus unintentionally perpetuating injustice."

They state that racism can be so entrenched in society that "people can unintentionally and unwittingly perpetuate racial division."

"For instance, devout Christians who naively use racial epithets or a well-intentioned Sunday School curriculum that only uses white photography and imagery," they continue. They list in the learning document that there are a number of challenges that the "white culture" needs to address.

They state that people need to stop denying that racism and systemic racism don't exist, which is "still at work to keep white Americans in power."
They also state that people need to stop being colorblind.

"While this might sound helpful, it actually ignores the God-given differences we all possess, as well as the beautiful cultures of our Black and Brown brothers and sisters. Instead of trying to be colorblind, try seeing the beauty in our differences, and welcome them into your homes churches and workplaces. Being colorblind also ignores the discrimination our Black and Brown brothers and sisters face and does not allow us to address racism properly," they state.

They offer some remedies for correcting such problems, including reading texts like White Awake and White Fragility, intentionally establishing relationships with people of color, and regularly engaging in conversations about race.

RE: Salvation Army goes woke, demands donors 'apologize' for their whiteness
Listen up you white devils. You need to repent.

BTW: You racists better keep donating.

The Salvation Army’s Alexandria-based leadership has created an “International Social Justice Commission” which has developed and released a “resource” to educate its white donors, volunteers and employees called Let’s Talk about Racism.



It asserts Christianity is institutionally racist, calling for white Christians to repent and offer “a sincere apology” to blacks for being “antagonistic.. to black people and the values of the black community.”



“Many have come to believe that we live in a post-racial society, but racism is very real for our brothers and sisters who are refused jobs and housing, denied basic rights and brutalized and oppressed simply because of the color of their skin,” one lesson explains. “There is an urgent need for Christians to evaluate racist attitudes and practices in light of our faith, and to live faithfully in today’s world.”



In an accompanying Study Guide on Racism, Salvation Army authors explain that all whites are racist, even if they don’t realize it. “The subtle nature of racism is such that people who are not consciously racist easily function with the privileges, empowerment and benefits of the dominant ethnicity, thus unintentionally perpetuating injustice,” it says.

Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the world
Black and yellow
Red and white
They are precious in his sight.

First song I remember learning in Sunday school in the late 1960s. Didn’t realize I was being indoctrinated into white supremacy with that.

With what they pay out to what they take in, SA and United Way can suck a nut. Yes, they do good things, but some people are getting rich after ringing them bells.

Christianity is inherently RACIST??? Maybe the Salvation Army should align with a more "tolerant" religion like ISLAM. 01-wingedeagle

I'm done with them. Thanks for the heads up.

No more donations. Next time I go by one of the bell ringers with a kettle, I will actually TELL them why I will no longer donate to them and tell them to send that message up the chain. You are supposed to be a charity but you have idiots in charge who want to get political. Go woke, go broke.

I just did myself. It infuriates me that such a fine instititution that the SA was has now decided to delve into politics. I will not donate a cent to them until they give a full apology and change their ways away from politics. I faithfully donated every month, not any more.

They can thank whomever is now running their organization for I believe will be a big subtraction from donations.

I guess donating to them shows my whiteness and racism. I'll show that I'm not by donating my money elsewhere. Problem solved.

I appreciate all you guys. Salvation Army is going to realize the truism “Get Woke, Go Broke”. There are plenty of worthwhile charities out there. Hell I just gave my grocery bagger a twenty dollar tip. She is autistic but is always busting her ass. She is black, I simply liked her character so SA can kiss my fvcking a$$. Character not skin melanin.

While its known for its red kettles, its still a church. And as such, it should stick to the bible and refrain from the woke bandwagon that is essentially pop culture.

What torques my jaw is that SA deems themselves as a Christian charity but is now into the Woke agenda. I guess they don't realize that most Wokesters aren't even Christians and certainly subscribe to the Liberal mindset, aka, against God and Jesus but then SA doesn't even realize this. SA is going against Christians and their desire to help the more needy among us but they don't want to admit that the Woke culture is the last ones to donate their money to anyone else. It's always let someone else do it.

It's fine with me that SA can think how they like but it's also fine with me not to give them any of my money. Let the Liberal crowd finance them and let's see how it goes.
