Despite biblical and scientific proof that Jesus was a dark skin man of color, during Christmas and Easter annually major magazines, newspapers and media outlets like CNN come forth with their specials like After Jesus to intentionally reinforce the false image of a white Jesus Christ. I ask the question "Why?" Why do they continue to perpetuate this lie? For those who say, "Why does it matter? " I say, the truth always matters. It must matter to someone for this lie to continue.
(FinalCall.com) - What color was Jesus? Most American Christians-Black and White-would dismiss this question as both irrelevant and unanswerable as the Gospels fail to give us a physical description. The irony is that most of these same Americans in their heart of hearts are pretty confident any way that they know what color Jesus was. They attend churches with images of a tall, long haired, full bearded White man depicted in stained glass windows or painted on walls, and they return home to the same depictions framed in their living room or illustrating their family Bibles.
Further compounding the irony is the fact that America actually has an obsession with the (presumed) color of Christ and has exported her White Americanized Savior around the world. In fact, the world's most popular and recognizable image of Christ is a distinctly 19th-20th century American creation.

Its also important for Jesus to be seen as white for America to justify its continued undying financial and military support for Israel. The Truth Will Set Us All Free.
My father being a Baptist Preacher for 62 years before his death, taught us that the true Jesus was Black, and many of the Biblical Characters were. That King James had his scribes to on purpose put the lie in the Bible regarding Ham and so much more to push the Black Slavery issue. He was born in 1896 and learned this information from attending a Baptist Church in Baltimore, Maryland in 1917, during his stay in the military before, during, and after WWI. He explained to us that writer, Mr. Rogers had uncovered so many Whites, who were Mulat-toes, and were ashamed to be, therefore they presented themselves as White. He said we should research our History and spread the knowledge to others. He said that Jesus, Moses and others of the Bible were Black in the pulpit of many rural churches. He never backed down and refused to let White Politicians enter any church he was pastor of to push for the Black Vote. He truly was a man, among the few. I have taught this to all races of students and have not had any problems in presenting these researched topics of truth to my classes. We must keep the truth flowing.
