King David was ruddy which most likely means he was a ginger.
1Samuel 16:12 And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he.
1Sa 17:42
And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance.

Amazing how inevitably with every fad progressive activists latch on to, they need to invoke Jesus' name to promote whatever the cause du jure jour is.Regards,

The letter of Lentulus is regarded as apocryphal for a number of reasons. No Governor of Jerusalem or Procurator of Judea is known to have been called Lentulus, and a Roman governor would not have addressed the Senate in the way represented. [...] Also, a Roman writer would not have employed the expressions "prophet of truth", "sons of men" or "Jesus Christ". The former two are Hebrew idioms, and the third is taken from the New Testament. The letter, therefore, gives a description of Jesus such as Christian piety conceived him.More at Wikipedia

The genetic heritage of Jesus only matters if you believe that Joseph, not God, is the father, in which case the science matters, but the man does not.

I’ve known a number of Jews who didn’t look “Jewish.” They looked “European” for what it’s worth. So what? Just another leftist muckraker trying to make a name for himself.

The only physical description of Jesus that does exist is from a copy of a letter from the Roman consul Lentulus to the Roman Emperor Tiberius. This document was discovered in a Monastery with copies of other ancient documents. According to the copy of the letter, the original letter from the consul was dated to the 12 year of the reign of the Emperor Tiberius. Scholars have historical verification that a certain Roman consul named Lentulus was in Judea at the time of Jesus’ trial and crucifixion. His influential family is mentioned by the Jewish historian Josephus in his book Antiquities of the Jews.

I know albinos that are blacker than King the fraud. The guy is a complete moron who couldn't get enough attention as a white nerd so he converted to the dark side. Never seen him with a woman so he's probably a butt pirate to boot.

Well, I have said this before about other silly, loony articles; in a pinch, it can be printed up and used as toilet paper..

I came across this which states that the description of Jesus from Pubilus Lentulus could not be true because he never existed:
http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/09154a.htm
just passing it along because I was interested and curious and looked it up because I had never seen it before.

I am so sick of hearing the words “racist” and “racism” that I instinctively respond “and you’re a child molester. Now that we’re through name-calling, can we have a serious discussion.”

Isaiah says he looked no different than anyone else and had no beauty that we should desire him. I think I’ll stick with Isaiah’s version.

Dark brown in the shade. Put a ripe chestnut in the sun, and you’ll see the red. Like Maureen O’Hara’s hair, as it was in The Quiet Man.

Jeremiah Wright is as unlikely to be correct on anything as his most famous drug-addled student, the communist who currently occupies our White House.
