I made no such assumption.
It is difficult to discern. But I happen to be against "guilty until proven innocent", which is what I see as the consequence of AA for this particular concern.

Also, if an employer wasn't racist in his hiring practices, then why would he need to give consideration.

It's my understanding that AA doesn't discern between racist and nonracist employers. They don't test for case-specific racism before applying AA.
The answer, then: he would need to if he was ordered to.
