in all three abrahamic faiths, all are equal in the sight of God. Christians are brothers and sisters to one another -- in Christ. All muslims are brothers and sisters among each other in Islam. Judaism, tho it teaches equality amongst the nations, do hold the notion that they are the chosen people of God.

All faiths don't forbid inter racial marriage.

In the Old testament, the 5th dispensation, under  the Law, the Jewish people were prohibited
to marry the idolaters, to prevent them from turning their hearts away from God.
  "And Ezra the priest stood up and said unto them, ye have transgressed and have
    taken strange wives to increase the trespass of Israel"  (Ezra 10:10)
  "...and separate yourselves from....and from the strange wives"..(Ezra 10:11)
   Also seen in the book of Deuteronomy, Nehemiah, etc.

The tribe of Judah, the Jews, are the chosen people of God wherein the Lord Jesus Christ
  had chosen to be  born into when He dwelt among men through a virgin birth.

In the New Testament, among Gentiles, the saved people are prohibited to marry a heathen
  "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers; for what fellowship hath
   righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14)

It's not about interracial marriages but only  among faith/doctrinal  ramifications.
