Salvation Army goes "woke"???

[Keith_Indy]

Disappointing if true.

Along with coins this Christmas, Salvation Army wants white donors to offer a "sincere apology" for their racism

The Salvation Army wants its white donors to give it more than just money this Christmas season. Its leadership is also demanding they apologize for being racist.

Is it bad that I can't tell anymore the parody news from the ridiculous-but-true news??

Anyways, I kind of want to call parody on this one for a couple of reasons but not the least of which is that it claims as one of it's supporters the CEO of Chick-fil-A and I am incredulous that they would have anything to do with advancing this kind of divisiveness in our society. If it's true, then unfortunately Chick-fil-A may have just pissed off another subset of society, the one that has stood behind them while the left was tearing them apart for having pro-life values. They have good chicken but these days even that's not enough if you burn too many societal bridges.

Seems like every year there's a hit piece that comes out about the SA. And always turns out to be a nothingburger.

And who is Central Nova News and why should I trust them?

How do you separate the Macedonians from the Greeks?

(with a crowbar )

The next thing you know, it will be the Bulgarians or Albanians.....as soon as they get electricity.

I always admired the Macedonians. Alexander was great!

From the Salvation Army Study Guide On Racism

You Sunday School teacher take note:

'Racism can be so entrenched in institutions and culture 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.'
