Now, I do agree he wasn't black... as we know black today. Evolution does funky things to people.
Now part of the reason Jesus has become white over the years is that every sect of religion has their own opinion of what Jesus looked like. For some he always wore white and looked like a king... others make him out to be a poor looking begger in ratty clothes and messy hair.
Oddly, my avatar was stolen from a Google search... I typed in "black Jesus" and that's what came up. It's a perfect picture for the statment.
