Home Depot hammered for shaming employees
for their ‘white privilege’

Original Article

A Canadian branch of Home Depot sparked outrage after it posted a notice to employees about the benefits of “white privilege” and included a checklist for those who are “white, male, Christian, cisgender, able-bodied, and heterosexual.” The notice, which is titled “Leading Practices — Unpacking privilege,” was headquarters confirmed to The Post that the white privilege notice was material from its Canadian division. She said it hadn’t been approved by the company’s diversity and inclusion department. The flyer had a Home Depot logo at the top. The Canadian staffers who were apparently given the learning material were encouraged to acknowledge “societal privileges that benefit white people beyond what is commonly

Second article I've seen today on this. HD must be on the slow Woke=Broke train. HD customer contact needs to be inundated with comments on this as well as firing the person, persons responsible. They know NOTHING about this white cracker and how I grew up.

Ten to one this is the Canadian Home Depot trying to pander to the Trudeau pedophiles. Since they abandoned freedom, years ago, the government is always sending someone around to lean on businesses, to insure they have the right mindset. Sort of like the Mafia. Being "not of the right mind set" can lead to expensive Lawfare and fines.

Shop at HD. LOTS of stuff in the basket cart. Small things from diverse places around the store. Fill that baby up. Draw a large cross on the top item. Leave it while waiting in line. Just walk away.

In this age of the Internet, do these big corporations actually believe that they will be able to keep this type of "woke" PC garbage a secret from their customer base?!?!?!?!? I love how the main US headquarters is massively disavowing this garbage. But unless we hear that the people responsible for this were immediately fired then their words of denial are pretty useless!!!

If Home Depot is not OK with loosing about half their clientele they will soon issue a public statement to the affect that corporate either agrees with or disagrees with the “woke” mindset. After all what does the “woke” mindset have to do with the selling and buying of hardware items?

Looks like this was in Canada? Regardless, it's time for the people who are the targets of this vitriol and hateful discrimination to sue. If such language (and it always has the force of authority behind it, i.e., the threat of being fired, or not advancing or getting raises) when used it is a threat, a tacit threat, but a threat nevertheless, and certainly were such language directed at any other group and they'd be hauled into court in a split second.

Perhaps all the privileged white males who are in the military should take a little time off and encourage equity of all the genders, races and sexual orientation in combat duty. It will never happen and there is much diversity in the military but for those who scream the loudest about inclusion, perhaps let’s include them in military duty too.

Are they purposely trying to drive away their customer base? HD’s CEO has been a Trump supporter in the past. It will be interesting to hear his response. If companies would start firing the people who enact these stupid policies maybe they wouldn’t lose the business they are bound to lose as this gets out to the public. If this is truly company policy, we will shop elsewhere. I refuse to reward wokesters who hate me.

If you shop at Home Depot, you LOVE Chinese junk! Tools are awful! Always go to my local HW store! Walked 40 years ago and bought a bunch of 8x12’s for a retaining wall. Asked how I could get them home and Bruce, the owner, handed me the keys to his truck and said use that! I was sold! Oh…the 4 foot retaining wall I built is still up and 180 degrees to the ground! No lean!

Woke - tear down the top to lift us the bottom, equity. Whites stop being 'clean and articulate. Maybe it's an invitation for a special race POC to come to shop for free whites won't be in the way. I always say if there is a target group you want to cater to then sell your product to them you don't need my business. Go woke go broke.

Wow, this has been a bad week for me and home improvement stores. First, I find out that Lowe's has just changed their Military/Veteran discount. They now will not give discounts on most of the big ticket items (e.g. appliances, lumber, electrical, etc.). "Thanks for your service--but no more discount for you." Now this about CRT and Home Depot. So as a white male customer, what should I expect in terms of service from a an HD customer service rep all hopped up on this CRT crap? How soon before we see special check out lines for minorities only? Or reparation taxes added to items bought by white people? Will I be able to purchase 'white' paint anymore? See how ridiculous all of this is?

Home Depot has very good service. However we do not have one locally. We do have a Lowes and quite honestly their service sucks and it alway seem when you need four screws of a certain size the only have three. You can never find someone to help you when you need it. On the other hand we have a Menards close by and you can always get help easily. It is a bit farther away than Lowes but, I go there first anyway. Oh and by the way I don’t care what race the guy standing in the stall next to me is.

Home Depot has about 2,300 stores in North America. Just because one nut-job manager goes haywire and off the rails does not mean the large corporation is going to hell as well. One robin doesn't make Spring. That being said they need to nip this in the bud ... pronto! If there isn't a smack-down they are crazy and looking to loose their base. Last time I was in HD the customers were all pretty much the same ... if ya get my drift.

The particular Home Depot in this neighborhood has more veterans on staff than they do young woke folks. Maybe just be the degradation of the Canadian branches caused a fatal flaw. Here in the mid-south, we are standing ''10 feet tall and bullet proof.'' It isn't like we really had anything in common with Canada anyway.

White Privilege and Systemic Racism are both myths, equally destructive. After a half century of REAL reparations in the form of racial preferences for Blacks in college, graduate school, and professional school admissions, hiring, promotions, awards of public contracts, gerrymandered voting districts to guarantee Blacks are elected, and probably trillions of dollars directed at education of Black Americans, still there is a wide gap between Blacks and every other group in test scores and performance. At the same time, some Blacks succeed with no problem, so the gap cannot be attributed to racial distinctions. It is long past time to stop talking about White Privilege and start identifying the problem for what it is: negative elements of Black Culture. Promiscuity, illegitimacy, ignorance,violence,lack of impulse control, and failure, are actually celebrated in Black Culture. Nothing will change until that does. Your failures are your own fault. Until you own that you will never succeed.

The excerpt states that this is "one branch". From the context it could be one store. In Canada. Is this material included in their "official" diversity and inclusion department's training documentation? What is the company's position? That certainly should have been addressed. If they are not pushing this position, what does their diversity and inclusion department do? Of course this could be the result of a company policy resulting in them hiring college graduates for management positions. I taught upper division engineering courses years ago before being seduced by industry. I have recently interviewed some "top" graduates from "top" engineering schools. These students would not have passed my courses. They were, however, thoroughly "woke".

The lack of self-awareness among the global elites is stunning. After Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau cracked down on protestors in his own country and sent his henchwoman, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, to freeze the assets of protesting truck drivers and their supporters, he traveled to Brussels to speak to the European Parliament. His theme was the threats to democracy posed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the growing distrust of governments in the West in the face of economic uncertainty. (Snip) Speaking directly to Trudeau, he added, “Canada, once a symbol of the modern world, has become a symbol of civil rights violations under your quasi-liberal boot in recent months.

DENVER — A 71-year-old Denver man is facing a felony charge after city officials say he made a pickleball court without permission.

Guney and others use a basketball court at Denver's Central Park Recreation Center for pickleball. Last Monday, the markings on the court had faded, so Guney re-marked them with a Sharpie.
