Well, not quite -- a casting call for the musical "Hamilton" asked for "nonwhite men and women" to audition.

Almost as widely condemned as Trump's statement that if abortion was illegal women should be punished for having them, and probably in violation of New York City's law that "bars discrimination based on race in employment advertising."  (Quotation from the NYTimes.)
