Coca-Cola is making employees go through racism training that teaches the company’s workers how to “be less white.”
“Be less oppressive, be less arrogant, be less certain, be less defensive, be less ignorant, be more humble, listen, believe, break with apathy, break with white solidarity” are listed as ways to become less white.
The training then claims that this effort to be less white has to start early, as children as young as three are already taught that their white race makes them inherently superior.
“In the U.S. and other Western nations, white people are socialized to feel that they are inherently superior because they are white,” the slide reads. “Research shows that by age 3 to 4, children understand that it is better to be white.”
“Try to be less white,” the training concludes.

I really don't know what to say about this. It's a terrible attempt to "do something". I suspect it's backfiring on Coca-Cola, big time.
