There has been tremendous effort to
conceal how Jesus looks and if you look
at the early paintings from the Orthodox
Church he was painted as a dark skin
man!
But when Icons became illegal many
painting of the Apostles and Jesus Christ
got burned and when they made Icons
legal again they changed their entire
appearance but that is common
knowledge amongst Scholars.
To say that the early pictures and images of
the Virgin Mary and the infant Jesus
represent them with black complexions is
not enough.
