From what I understand the modern concept of race arose during the age of colonialism, but before that time, was there any documented accounts of racism against black people by white people?

    Wasn't that Roman era stuff? Once you get to the late medieval/early modern era the prevailing idea was that warm climates were a corrupting influence, which tied into the religious conflicts with Muslims in the middle east and africa.
