Three Wise Men

Throughout the centuries, pictures of the three Wise Men always show one of them to be Black.  When the slave trade was going on in the USA and other places, black people were thought to not be human, or not so human that they could not be treated as badly as they were treated.  A black man was able to worship Jesus and believe in a Messiah, in the Epiphany scene.  A black man was able to be called a King.  However, for the sake of profit all this was ignored.  The obvious is denied because of greed and selfishness.

Is not the world warming?  Some people would deny it, because it would interfere with making money.  One thing does not change: greed and selfishness.
