It was once very common, until a "no politics" rule was experimented with, where "politics" was largely a euphemism for "discussion of minority issues in tech." This rule was eventually abandoned, and just applied manually through direct moderation. After that point the only race/diversity stuff that gets through is anti-diversity stuff. I assume this is being upvoted because it's being mistaken for libertarian "race realism" from the title.
You're saying that companies should stop parading their "diversity" in their PR, and especially stop focusing on individuals. I tend to agree, but if they stop using black people in their PR, they're probably going to stop hiring black people. They don't know any.
