It depends on how you measure equality.I see the difference is color and appearance as not something that is inferior or superioe to each other.Ofcourse thats how we generally tend to incline towards unless we belive that GOD created these differences to rather test us and see how we treat each other. I know you hate Quran and Muslims, but I can only asnwer this from an Quranic perspective and this is the verse that deals with this
O people!! We have created you from a single male and female, and made you into nations and tribes that you may know each other. Truly, the most honored of you in the sight of God is the one the most righteous toward you-Quran 49:13
