Agreed and I plan to let the volunteer manning the bell know exactly why I am walking right past him.

Its first “red kettle” was set up in Oakland, California in 1891.


and the last one is coming quickly.

Contact the Salvation Army and tell them what you think of this.

It’s just another organization that has been infiltrated by demons.

It may not be too late.

We have seen it in many, many of the churches.

It’s the same old antichrist spirit.

Say goodbye to the the SA.

Well, you sure told us!

Despite the many other links proving this story is true. Despite the past social justice history, you can (by yourself) tell us all we are being played.

Fair enough. We see many verifiable links and we know of the woke history of the SA; so now it’s your turn.

Show us a link - just one will do it - that proves the SA has NOT demanded white apolgies. Perhaps a denial from the SA will do.

We’ll wait. But don’t expect us to hold our breath while we wait.

Yes, the real thing goes into the craziness that the “study guide” glosses over. Appendix A (Glossary) is especially barf-inducing.

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 or the culture, values and interests of the black community."

Is any of this true?

well, I would never have guessed!!!!

do they know that BLM is a violent anti-Christian organization??

I wonder how much of the support they depend upon comes from blacks versus whites?? They may want to check their bookkeeping records.

From the Salvation Army website:
This month we are advocating for the elimination of Racism in our societies. Racism is the belief that races have distinct attributes, abilities, or virtues, that make them inferior or superior to one another. Racial injustice is when racism festers into inequality; and is demonstrated in the severe limitation of education, employment, health, and opportunity for racial minorities.

In the USA alone, there were 4,930 victims of race-based hate crime in 2019. However, racism is rarely as overt. It manifests in ways that mean Black Americans are twice as likely to lack health insurance, 21% of Black households live in poverty compared to 8% of White households, and Black males are five times more likely to be imprisoned than white males. For many in the Western world, this representation of racism is at the forefront of their understanding. However, discrimination permeates every society across the globe. To list just a few, ongoing racial injustice issues include the Indian Caste system, the mistreatment of 476 million Indigenous peoples in over 90 countries, the legacy of apartheid in South Africa, of slavery in South American countries, and of multiple large-scale genocides in the last century.

Racism can also present in the form of implicit biases; subconscious prejudices that affect our unchecked thoughts and reactions. It is thought that up to 75% of people have a subconscious racial bias which has been shown to influence medical decisions, employment opportunities and even friendships. We would be foolish to believe that we, as Christians, are naturally exempt from these biases. We must therefore ensure that we develop a habit of honest self-examination and purge ourselves of the prejudices we find.

Seems like it could be forklifted out of any Social Justice Warrior handbook.

Sorry.

Nothing personal here.

I know you think we are being played, but reading this is like seeing a termite in a room in your house. When I see this released to the public from an organization, I know there are busy Marxist bees in the background taking over, pushing their influence and boundaries further. I've seen it.

There is no national number to call for information. They sure don't have a problem being contacted when you want to give them money, but apparently asking a question is out of the question.

This is not them being attacked by the Homosexual Lobby as they were some time ago. This is them, something they have concocted themselves, to try to be the last one eaten by the crocodile. I won't have any part of it.

Acting in any way to avoid being eaten by the crocodile other than fleeing it or fighting it is a living lie.

It’s clear they are infiltrated and under attack.

But NO! Let’s nobody put up a fight to try to warn/save/inform them.

Let’s just cross them off the list as another utter defeat without any fight.

That war is not over until YOU decide it is.

This is how we get and keep Pedophile Presidents.

Satan laughs at getting us to pile on upon our own.

The people doing this to the Salvation Army WANT THEM GONE.

JUST LIKE SO MANY HERE.

Are you certain you are helping their enemies enough?

I define a win in this situation as the prevention of the Salvation Army
falling complete victim to CRT infiltration.

Too many here seem to define their win, as the Salvation Army becoming
bankrupt, just like the Boy Scouts.

Think for a moment who you share that goal with.

I tried for about an hour to find a number to talk to a human, but was unable to. Every number was about giving them money or something else, not to ask any question.

“Is any of this true?”

I can’t find any of it on the Salvation Army Web Site.

“I used to donate every year about this time.”

I’ll be dropping something in every SA kettle I see, but it won’t be money. The left understands “strongly worded letters”, so I think I can provide a few.

Hi.

If this is true, it’s not a good idea.

Bad optics, possible alienation of 60% of possible donations.

What happens if my wife is with me? She would go ballistic and I would have to bail her out.

She’s African American.

A lot has changed in the last 50-60 years when I went to SA camp in upstate NY. They never would’ve believed this nonsense would occur in America.

“I try to never pass a Salvation Army kettle without donating. I guess those days are over.”

You can still donate to them. It doesn’t have to be money.
