If Jesus was brown, then guess what .... God is likely brown too.
Let's wait until far right #Christian #Evangelicals in USA figure THAT one out.
Like the whole "of course Santa is white" ridiculousness on #FOXNEWS at Christmas.

Rev 1:14-16 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

Jesus was Jewish. Most likely His skin color was darker much like an Arabs today. Caliph Omar conquered Jerusalem, Syria,Palestine, and Egypt. Nubians most likely came from Nubia and are depicted as much darker (Black) in Egyptian art and writing.

That's always been my general way of thinking about what he would have looked like back then. The whole picture of the white christ in a robe with sheep and people around his out stretched arms with a halo on his head has always baffled me.
The thought of a dark or black messiah does seem to get put down by alot of believers. They don't seem to want to even think of the possibility that is could be the case.
Black pride is a movement in response to dominant white cultures and ideologies that encourages black people to celebrate black culture and embrace their African heritage.[1]

It is your conceit that raises you above all else and this is why you can speak with authority on what damn color hair he has.

He can have what ever color hair he wants and your personal conceit will not change his hair color.P
Context of Rev 1 as well as the context of the whole book of Revelation and other parts of the NT tells us this is Jesus Christ.
Rev 1:14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
Dan 7:9 ¶ I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.
