Keep in mind the racist content wasn’t from Coca Cola (as the headline implies) but rather a LinkedIn Learning contributor based on the work of Robin DiAngelo.

All material based on Robin DiAngelo’s work has since been removed from LinkedIn learning:

Whether they produced it or not - if they were requiring new hires to sit through it, they've got some ownership of it.

If the goal was to get people to be thoughtful about intentional or unintentional stereotypes they may hold, this was about as poor of a way of approaching the subject as possible. Starting out by telling every white person they were racist by the age of 3 is a pretty outrageous claim and a great way to shut down any constructive/thoughtful conversations about race.
