I think this is a misguided question. Race and gender biases (among others) are woven into just about all of our social hierarchies. It's not a black and white thing. Intersectional theory is a much better model than whatever you're using.

And even these are built on race and gender

I mean that's just not true because class and wealth inequality exist within more homogenous societies
