The SA has gone down the wrong path.
When so-called "religious" people engage in these futile campaigns against conditions that are inherent in the natural order of the world, it's obvious that they've lost their way and are nothing more than secular bureaucracies.
At 13:25: “For the past 5 or 6 years, the cadet body, our ministers in training, have been minority white”
18:00 blond lady talks about the need to impose “measurable goals to increase equity”.
Looks like the answer to the question “Are they going to learn from this and stop this nonsense?” is a resounding NO. What has grabbed control of that organization is pure racial hatred and it isn’t letting go.
21:50 “We need to consistently name racism as wrong, as grievous (sin)”
This does not surprise me. The radicals from the sixties infiltrated the government at all levels, universities, churches; and in the years since have introduced their poison like termites eating at the foundational beams of the institutions. The Salvation Army obviously was one of their many targets. All done in typical Marxist fashion.
Correct. By all indications, the people who demand that "diversity, inclusion, equity" be foremost among the goals of the organization have taken ABSOLUTE control of the leadership structure. Any SA people who don't comply with their views will be chased out over the next year or two.
The “blond lady”, SA Colonel Janet Munn, is “Director, International Social Justice Commission The Salvation Army “ according to her LinkedIn page

At 28:00 in the video she talks about how ALL white people need to repent of the collective sin of racism.
I haven’t donated to the SA since Aug, 2017, so this new kerfluffle really doesn’t effect me.........
......EXCEPT......that in NOT donating and possibly ending the SA, we are playing into the hands of the socialists who want the end of charities....ALL largess should come from the government in their thinking.
And then there are the people in need. People who in the past and those who the Army would help today...what about them? These are the folks we were happy to help - through the SA - what becomes of them?
IMO, it’s not a matter of destroying the SA. Rather, it’s a matter of destroying the rotten hierarchy of this once loved organization.
Pulling down a web site, removing a video, apologies... all mean nothing so long as the leadership that caused all this remains.
I am not going to support an organization that knowingly or unknowingly is working to destroy America and Western civilization. The only thing worse than evil is evil with a veneer of the godly.
The road to Hell is paved with "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion" officers.
“This time together will be a discussion about racial justice”
Mr. & Mrs. Munn: will your discussion include the wildly disproportionate violent crime against whites and others by blacks?
Get back to me on that, then we’ll start talking about throwing some money into the pot.

Diversity in the USA Eastern Territory - with Commissioners Bill and Lorraine Bamford

The move to worshiping diversity apparently started a while back, possibly as a result of Left-controlled retail organizations not allowing SA bell-ringers because the organization wasn’t “woke” enough to be tolerated.
Mr and Mrs Munn are directors of The Salvation Army International Social Justice Commission
