<p>Home Depot <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/03/23/home-depot-ripped-for-shaming-employees-over-white-privilege/">released</a> a statement Wednesday addressing controversy about a hyper-progressive worksheet on &#8220;white privilege&#8221; and &#8220;racism&#8221; that recently went viral online.</p>
<p>The company acknowledged that the worksheet is a &#8220;resource&#8221; in its Canadian division but noted that it&#8217;s &#8220;not part of any required programming,&#8221; nor was it &#8220;created or approved by our corporate diversity, equity and inclusion department.&#8221;</p>
<p>The literature defined &#8220;white privilege&#8221; as &#8220;[s]ocietal privileges that benefit white people beyond what is commonly experienced by people of colour under the same social, political and economic circumstances.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Social privilege&#8221; was defined as &#8220;[s]pecial, unearned advantage or entitlement, used to one&#8217;s own benefit or to the detriment of others. These groups can be advantaged based on social class, age, disability, ethnic or racial category, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, and religion.&#8221;</p>
<p>The worksheet also has a &#8220;check your privilege&#8221; segment, where the following choices are available: &#8220;white,&#8221; &#8220;male,&#8221; &#8220;class,&#8221; &#8220;christian,&#8221; &#8220;cis-gender,&#8221; &#8220;able-bodied,&#8221; and &#8220;heterosexual.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Class&#8221; privilege, the worksheet said, should be ascribed to anyone who expected as a kid they would one day go to college. &#8220;If while growing up, college was an expectation of you, not a dream, you have class privilege,&#8221; the worksheet said.</p>
<p>The resource claimed &#8220;racism&#8221; is &#8220;racial prejudice + power,&#8221; defining &#8220;racial prejudice&#8221; as a &#8220;set of discriminatory or derogatory attitudes based on assumptions coming from perceptions about race/skin colour.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Some of the portions of the worksheet appeared to be copied from a social media campaign against privilege in 2014 at the University of San Francisco,&#8221; The Blaze <a href="https://www.theblaze.com/news/home-depot-white-privilege-boycott">noted</a>.</p>
<p>“While we fully support diversity across our company, this material was not created or approved by our corporate diversity, equity and inclusion department,&#8221; Home Depot said in a statement. &#8220;This was a resource in our Canadian division and not part of any required programming.&#8221;</p>

<p>Back in 2019, billionaire Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus angered the Left when he said he&#8217;d be donating money to then-President Donald Trump&#8217;s re-election campaign, triggering a #BoycottHomeDepot hashtag.</p>
<p>“He’s got a businessman’s common sense approach to most things,” Marcus said of Trump. “Now, do I agree with every move that he makes? No, I don’t. But the truth is he has produced more than anybody else. He has. If we look at this country, I would say that we are better off today than we were eight years ago or six years ago.”</p>
<p>Marcus, who retired as chairman of Home Depot in 2002, said that after he dies he will give between 80-90% of his estimated $5.9 billion fortune to various charitable causes, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/boycott-home-depot-trending-over-trump-donation-james-barrett">The Daily Wire</a> highlighted.</p>
