"True Colors" [Episode 21]
from Deeper In The Word · host Reverend Adrian L Robinson II
This episode, RevRob examines the controversial topic of the race/color of Jesus Christ, which will include uncovering the truth associated with historical depictions of Him, as well as delving into the origin of the “white Jesus” phenomenon, both in Europe (during the Renaissance and, thus, throughout the world via colonization), as well as the distinctly-American phenomenon of depicting Jesus as blondish and blue-eyed. Join us for discussion topics which include the “finer points” of the art of false equivalency; how underlying notions of white supremacy go against who Jesus REALLY was; why “The Last Supper” portrait is so factually wrong; how the Nazis tried to lay claim to Christ; and how “shining like Michael Jordan” ISN’T the same thing as being “handsome”.
