“Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity. … In the new order, Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society.”
- Antonio Gramsci
Wow. They’ve been one of my top charities for years.
No more donations from me for them. There are plenty of other worthwhile charities who aren’t racists like the SA.
I’m dumbfounded. The Salvation Army is woke?
God help us...
I prefer writing a note that I contributed to the Human Fund in their name - Jerry Seinfeld. I think this article is a hoax BTW.
Might I suggest Code of Vets or Boys Town? 98% of every dollar goes to help a vet.
My experience in the service also made me hold the SA in high regard. Matter of fact, for many years it would be the ONLY charity I would donate to.
My yearly Christmas donation came to a halt in 2017 when the SA decided it didn’t like President Trump and withdrew from a charity golf tournament at Mar a Lago.
What they do now is of no consequence, they are dead to me.
I wondered that too.
It’s all over the place, but no actual people appear to be quoted. Just “the leadership.”
However, I don’t see anyone from the SA scrambling to refute this, either.
As has been pointed out, that is a different guide.
For the record, (so people know what's going on with the S.A.) the OP links to the article on the "Central Nova News" site.
3rd Paragraph in:
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."
It's that "Let's Talk about Racism" guide (a pdf) that's the main topic of the OP.
My 2 cents...ANY Caucasian (i.e. "white" person) or Christian who donates to the racist Salvation Army going forward, is contributing to their own demise.
I'll give 'em a good kick in the nuts and take their money.
How about that?
I wondered that too.
======================================
It's for real. See #248.
Along with coins this Christmas, Salvation Army wants white donors to offer a "sincere apology" for their racism
Yes, unfortunately this is real. See #248.
Thank you. I just sent a response to an e-mail they sent this morning asking for money. (I gave them a donation last month and tend to do so throughout the year.)
My response:
I’m sorry. I have donated regularly to the Salvation Army for decades and have always thought you did wonderful work.
However, I am hearing disappointing news about the Salvation Army calling its white donors “racist,” asking us to apologize and saying that we need to be “re-educated.”
I am not a racist and I cannot support any organization who is, along with the mainstream media and several politicians, engaging in attempts to divide Americans by race.
I wish you the best and thank you for all you have done in the past. I hope the Salvation Army will come to its senses, but you are now removed from my charities list. Please don’t send me any more messages.
Best regards,
Xxxxxxxx

I seem to recall that one of the primary ideals of socialism is the elimination of all private charities.
What better way to accomplish this than to undermine confidence and trust in those charities.
No solutions......just a thought.
“I think this article is a hoax BTW.”
i hope that’s the case ... but guess we’ll have to wait and see ...
SAME HERE
I hope you’re right.
But it’s all over the place. Until I see someone with a name refuting all of this, they won’t get another dime from me.
So a supposed charitable cause is going to give those who are inclined to be charitable and donate time or money or labor a lecture on who biased, selfish and privileged they are.
Should work out well for them. Go woke! Go broke! Now!
I will not donate either, now that they’ve painted with a broad brush.
All they did was further a divide for no reason. Disappointing.
(and “disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure.”)
Western Civilization.
It was fun while it lasted...
“I’m going to spend my money on fentanyl laced Newport cigarettes..”
Very nice. :-)
Whites are already paying the price for merely existing.
vdare.com 32 whites killed by blacks in October 2021. They pretty much print this list each month, and there are always at least 30 of these murders.
