That depends though, if a business decided to do this in a bigger city like Chicago or Philedelphia, it would obviously fail. However if someone decided to do this in the sticks in Arkansas or Idaho where there are hardly any black people, it might succeed who knows, depends on the attitudes of the people in the local area.
I considered that already. I don't think the few local black people patronize those establishments anyway, because policy or not, they already know it's unfriendly to minorities.
Racism can not be legislated away. It's embedded within the human mind. Look around you. For the most part, on a macro level, nationalities and races tend to stick to their own groups. Society is integrated to an extent, but overall we do tend to group up.
I notice that, I don't like it personally but that is the way it is. Be that as it may, its not unreasonable for us to at leas get along.
Most of us get along fine. We get along at work, when we're out in public shopping, when we play sports, when we go to church, when we're at a ballgame...But at home, and in close circles of friends, and even neighborhoods we choose to live in...it's pretty obvious we're not as integrated as we'd like to think we are.
There's no law that can change that either.
