Dumb policy.
When I first saw the headline I was a little shocked, and after actually reading the article, I see their point and actually agree with it.

As pointed out by others, they are not stopping mixed babies, they are only trying to match the ethnicities of the parents. So if there's a Zimbabwean mother and a Chilean father, they will try to find a donor of one of those two types. If the parents are both of European decent, that's the donor you'll get. No problem. It's the same policy adhered to by Mother Nature.

To the OP: "Racist" is a completely inapplicable term in this case. Who is being offended in this particular case? The sperm? Won't someone please think of the semen?
