While it sounds good in theory, the reality will be much different. Resume bias has been studied for quite some time, and shows a dramatic bias against minority candidates that are equally qualified to white males. This has been steadily improving, but I don't think there are any recent studies that show it has finally been eliminated. It is somewhat fundamental that we would prefer to be with people that are more similar to ourselves, and given the current make up of many institutions do not reflect the community they are in, this bias will be propagated.

Here is one more recent article I found:
