A stained glass window depicting Jesus Christ with dark skin has ignited a
thought-provoking discussion about race, representation, and religious
imagery. The artwork, prominently displayed in a church, challenges
traditional depictions of Jesus as a fair-skinned figure and encourages a
more inclusive portrayal of the religious icon.
The stained glass window has garnered attention from both believers and
scholars alike, sparking debates on the historical accuracy of Jesus’
appearance and the impact of racial representation in religious imagery.
Supporters argue that the portrayal aligns with the diversity of Jesus’
followers and helps address the historical marginalization of people of
color in religious contexts.
