I think that kind of racial diversity would still have some value, in that it would give some useful exposure to other races that would clear up preconceived notions and embedded stereotypes much more effectively than just saying, "All black people are not alike" or what have you.
But it's not of anywhere near enough value to justify affirmative action.
