  • An anonymous businessman handed out $100 bills to people in need on the San Carlos Apache Tribal Lands. Though the money was needed, his words of kindness meant so much more. Steve Hartman shares more in "On the Road."

    Even though we might all intellectually know it, it's stunning to see how being recognized is so important to humans. It was emotional to see how those women of different ages reacted so strongly to being complimented and recognized. This is what fuels the human spirit and you can see how toxic social media is just by the terrible things strangers say to each other there. That toxic sludge goes right into the psyche and molders there for a long time.

      Honestly wasn’t expecting that lmao but I think it’s because the kids want the cat inside.. Most pets on the reservation live outside during the harsh conditions and sadly many die throughout the year due to heat, cold or hit and runs.. During random times throughout the year, you can see many dead pets.. It’s sad to see especially when a dog was hit and neighbors don’t take care of their pets so you see them eating the dead dog..

    As an ALS patient who received an anonymous gift of a $100 bill in my shopping cart a couple of years ago (back when I was weakening but not yet in a wheelchair), I can tell you it is an amazing feeling. I did not see the gentleman place the bill in my cart, as I was choosing some bread. I was sure someone had accidentally dropped it, so I went to the info desk and reported it. The teller looked at the bill, smiled, looked up at me and said, “It’s yours. One of our regular customers does this, and you were today’s recipient.” He showed me a subtle mark identifying the giver. BTW, this was in Salem, OR, at the Fred Meyer on S Commercial Blvd. So if you’re the generous gentleman, THANK YOU! ☺️🙏❤️💥

    1. Narcissism: I'm an atheist, but I am familiar with the idea that giving and helping someone should be an intimate gesture of kindness. We should not do good deeds for any sort of reaction or expected outcome, and certainly not for a camera. 2. Exploitation: it is very tacky to parade poor people in front of cameras to show them weeping for $100 bills. Sure, they had to sign a permission waiver to show their faces, but they're being exploited because of a feature story on money giveaways. 3. Propaganda: It is scripted and edited by filmmakers in a way that manipulates a lot of well intentioned viewers into feelings and tunnel vision...and that's the definition of propaganda. 4 White Saviour Complex: The point of view of this story is hackneyed and old fashioned and filled with the notion that only a kindly white person with lots of money can help poor starving wretches. 1Narcissism 2 exploitation 3 Propaganda 4. White Saviour Complex
