"Color of the Cross" tells a traditional story, focusing on the last 48 hours of his life as told in the Gospels. In this version, though, race contributes to his persecution. Why aren't people complaining that the Jews of Jerusalem are being depicted as racist?

"It is the first representation in the history of American cinema of Jesus as a black man."
Ah wrong. There was a bizarre American film in 1996 entitled "The Offering" which depicted a "black" Jesus.
Great research as usual MSM.

How about a movie on Martin Luther King's life starring Bruce Willis?

However John describes the risen Jesus by saying His "head and hair" were white.

Nice try generalizing all of Calif from some whacko in Los Angeles.....that is like saying Texas produces mothers who drown their babies......which is worse?..... I wouldn't generalize to the whole state....don't know why it is Texans that are the first on FR to always bash Calif..

I agree with you. Jesus was what he was and he wasn't black.
To: Nachum
It doesn't matter what color Jesus was. All that matters is THAT He was, and that all of mankind recognizes Him as the Savior.
He has ascended. He borrowed the physical form of a Jew. Now
His face is that of all mankind.
That's how I see it.

Revelation 1:14
His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire.

The Race of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, matters not a whit to me. His blood that washed away our sins was red and pure.
How petty to argue over his race, ethnicity or hue.

Jesus was a Jew from the Middle East. Pretty easy to guess what color he was.. Yes, He probably looked more or less like a Sephardic Jews Jew. But maybe not as much like modern Sephardim as you might think. Lots of things change in 2000 years. Many of them trace their lineage through the Ottoman empire and/or Spain. Some mixing there.
But as someone else wrote: Who cares. What he was is infintely more important than what he looked like.
