Home Depot uses a document about racial and social entitlement called"Unpacking privilege" in the training of its employees.In a statement to Snopes, Home Depot acknowledged the existence of the"Unpacking privilege" worksheet, but said it originated with the company's Canadian division, and was neither created nor or approved by Home Depot's diversity, equity, and inclusion department.
While all this may have given some social media users the impression that the above-displayed pamphlet was part of a company-wide Home Depot initiative, Snopes learned that that is not the case. We reached out to Home Depot for more information about this packet and were told that the material came from the company's Canadian division and was not created or approved by the company's corporate diversity, equity, and inclusion department, nor is it part of any company-wide training.
