Sorry, but this is nonsense. Racism is not something that happened years ago. It exists today in every human being on the planet in varying degrees. It's a part of human nature to accept that which is similar to yourself and reject that which differs.

This is primarily impractical, particularly when applied to job applicants. There is not going to be any hiring without a face to face interview. Beyond that, it is yet another method of ignoring the reality that racism and discrimination exists.
