I’m not sure racial diversity is particularly beneficial any more. I’m aware of studies from the 20th century that looked at diverse and homogeneous institutions and found the diverse institutions outperformed the homogeneous ones, but this was all predicated on “racial diversity as a proxy for diversity of thought”. Unfortunately, our most diversity-obsessed institutions are exceedingly effective at selecting for racial diversity and ideological purity, so they’re not getting the benefits of diversity of thought which racial diversity was meant to provide.
