The invention of Racism is often credited to Scottish inventor Alexander Graham Racism - though it’s generally now considered that German inventor Johann Philipp Reisism had a practical example of Racism fifteen years earlier.

One time A.G. Racism was sitting under a chippy when a black man dropped on his head. That gave him an idea that’s now credited with inspiring racism.

Systemic racism has existed as long as concepts of race exist.
Scientific racism was created in France to justify the enslavement of African Christians as normally it is illegal in canon law to enslave another Christian. The UK and other Northern European nations embraced these concepts and built upon them.
