Most definitely. You see this effect within Amazon fulfilment centers too. More ethnic diversity is correlated with less willingness to unionize on an inter-center basis.

Unions depend on a feeling of we are all together, so diversity is one possible Union killer. There are others, and unions need other things, but a sense of togetherness is part of it

Unions have also historically been pretty racist--explicitly excluding anyone who wasn't a white male. That's probably less the case today, but they're still dominated by white, socially conservative men.
