In a sense she is right that Classical Greeks painted over sculptures and buildings. Of course her implication is crazy. She is wrong about people admiring white marble started in the 18th century. The Renaissance, trying to reclaim Classical civilization luved working with marble. Just ask Michelangelo.

So she thinks The David is really a large black man? Or does she want a hammer taken to it?

I am officially over this “whiteness” BS. If you coloreds can do better, do it! Otherwise STFU! !@#$ affirmative action whining idiots.

Oh, bleep. Look at the brown arms of the classic Greeks and romans and look again at the Snow White marble. Sheesh. They were no paler than Mexicans, Arabs, asians. Maybe paler than Africans, islanders, or Indians from India is all.
To leftists, skin color is more important than anything else.

It’s a no-holds-barred competition for who can come up with the stupidest idea ever. All pretense and subtlety are abandoned. It’s open and above-board. A blatant and fully-public race to Who Can Be The Biggest Moron Ever.
The problem is, the “winner” only gets to hold title until the next moron comes along.

Time to stir up the blacks again and have some riots as the comie testimony fizzled.

I wonder what he thinks of pianos? The white keys are longer than the black keys.

Does the exquisitely racially aware Ms. Bond object to bronze sculpture?

What’s more, IIRC, Greek statuary was “clothed” on display yet I remember well an AG that was mocked loudly for robing the statuary in Congress.

If my black Jeep GC gets a flat tire does that contribute to white supremacy or just black academic under-performance (blacademic inferiority)?

They aincent Greek society was pretty much all white anyway, AFAIK. I am sure color was not a factor other than pure white marble is a more attractive and stable medium for sculpting, just as one would begin a painting on a white canvas or paper.

"the 'white marble' often seen in such pieces of art were intended to be colored." No! It was intended to be marble of color.

Sarah E. Bond of the University of Iowa appears to be a person of pallor.

Caught the last few minutes of a tv show this morning stating Mount Rushmore was white supremacy. Ok, fine, playing that card means the Crazy Horse monument is red supremacy.
