western education system is evil. as a white person, it's appalling to see how history has been revised to save white face. no better example than the bible.

Some "white" people actually know this stuff. You will find much more truth from European mouths about it, lots of truth written about the subject is on the internet, alot of it is written in Dutch or other languages, or black folks who write about it in English but get called "Afrocentric" even though they have proper sources. These pictures didn't pop out of anywhere, there sitting in Museums all around Europe (even though some are fake or have been tampered with)

I believe this is a statue of King Kasper? Its is in a small town in germany, he holds the holy roman empire shield

If anyone actually cares about the origin of that painting:

A Young Archer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rembrandt also portrayed people of African origin, including black soldiers and figures in armour.[2] It is not known whether the boy was a model, in the army, or a huntsman of a Dutch country estate.[2] Flinck's model was probably a slave, and would have been one of the first slaves to arrive in 17th-century Holland, possibly from Ghana, where the Dutch had a slave trading post in Elmina.[3] Art critic Andrew Graham-Dixon wrote of the subject of A Young Archer in 2004 that

Whether the young man painted by Flinck was actually from the Sudan, or not, it seems likely that the painter intended to show him as a living embodiment of the proud, martial spirit of the Nubian race – a poignant contrast to his actual situation, as a first-generation African slave...The solemn, thoughtful humanity of Flinck's portrayal makes it unusual, among early Western European depictions of black Africans, suggesting at the very least a bond between the artist and the sitter.[3]


As for the coats of arms:

The use of the 'moor's head' as a heraldic device dates from the 13th century. The emblem has connections to the Crusades, reflecting associating individual families with victories over the moors. Heraldic devices and emblems were included on objects like those featured here to indicate ownership.

The device may also have connections with the Hohenstaufan dynasty, which ruled the Holy Roman Empire from 1138 to 1254. The Emperor Henry VI (1165-1197) kept black African retainers. His son Frederick II (1194-1250), who was also King of Sicily, took a keen interest in the black Muslim population that had remained in Sicily after the island's return to Christian rule in 1061. He established an enclave for these Muslims near his palace in Lucera in southern Italy, and recruited his musicians and elite bodyguard from the community.

Frederick's use of black Africans can be explained by his desire to present himself as a 'world ruler'. Their presence symbolised the extent of his power. Other families may have adopted the moor's head on their arms to associate themselves with the Hohenstaufan dynasty.

More CAC lies, they will literally call every black depiction of the nobility that wasnt whitewashed slaves :snoop:. They said the moor on the popes coat of arms was a honorable slave the saved the pope from a bear :russ:. That picture was painted in the same time the 30 years war was going on with the Holy Roman Empire.

I don't see why this makes Black people any worse off.

The explanation given for the Moor's Head on the Teutonic coats of arms is still pretty cool.

That is NOT why they have Moors on the coat of arms. They're trying to act like the Moors were only the Islamic moors that came in 711, their trying to erase the fact that there were INDIGENOUS BLACK Europeans. You keep pulling up Wikipedia quotes and general Cac news as if these people are going to tell the real deal. Many of those paintings are whitewashed. It has nothing to do with defeating the Islamic moors, what about those coat of arms looks islamic to you? Who the hell puts "defeated" people with CROWNS on their COAT OF ARMS?
