What was the 1st religion to "truly" initiate "race equality"?
Followers of this faith don't even think about anything related to the race or color of anyone they interact with..race is not in their dictionary (I was truly amazed!)

Most religions predate the very concept of "race", which was invented about 500 years ago.
So: any religion more than 500 years old that is not exclusive to a particular population in a particular locale probably qualifies.
For example: certainly we see this is the case with Judaism in the Bible, dating to the time of Moses (c. 1500 B.C.E.) In the Bible, Egyptians accompany the Israelites during the Exodux, and at Sinai the entire group "adopted" Judaism.
I'm sure that there are even older religions that similarly are open to foreign converts. Being older, they would also exhibit "race equality".

Christianity - the Christianity that Jesus taught, not most of those being practiced today.
