You seem to point to hidden racism, but that doesn't answer the question. I see no discussion of profitability in your examples.

Take the contraposition: being overtly racist or segregationist is not profitable.

How many whites only lunch counters exist today?

I get your point, but I feel that’s a bit off topic. You can definitely lose money by being overtly discriminatory, that doesn’t imply that diversity is a lucrative thing. Not being discriminatory doesn’t imply that you’re promoting/focusing on diversity.
