Black is a skin color and not a people. Depicting people to look like you isn't trying to hide anything. Did you notice how many times Jesus's skin color is mentioned in the bible? NONE! Because it does not matter! Egyptians depicted skin of all colors including black. No one is hiding that.
"Black people" in the west mostly descend from enslaved west Africans. Unfortunately, that is real history. Africans were sold or kidnapped and treated like animals. There is no conspiracy to keep "black people" from knowing they are the real Jews or the real Egyptians or the true whomever. There isn't any big secret or some amazing discovery waiting to be uncovered.
It is painful not to know where you are from, your culture, families traditions, beliefs, heroes & legends of your people. "Black people" do not need to be the real/secret "______" to have value.
This is where "black people" come from.
"Of those Africans who arrived in the United States, nearly half came from two regions: Senegambia, the area comprising the Senegal and Gambia Rivers and the land between them, or today’s Senegal, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau and Mali; and west-central Africa, including what is now Angola, Congo, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Gabon. The Gambia River, running from the Atlantic into Africa, was a key waterway for the slave trade; at its height, about one out of every six West African enslaved people came from this area. "
This is Africa.
Noses range from thin to wide to small to big across the world.
Pictures were defaced because it caused them to lose their "power".
As he explained, ancient Egyptians attributed considerable importance to images of the human form, essentially believing that a deity’s essence might inhabit its material likeness, or that a part of a dead person’s soul could dwell in a statue ascribed to it. Therefore, Bleiberg postulated, by damaging a statue the perpetrator would seek to “deactivate an image’s strength” rather than simply revel in an act of vandalism.
"The damaged part of the body is no longer able to do its job", he said, noting that, for example, breaking off a statue’s nose effectively "kills" a statue as it wouldn’t be able to breathe, while a likeness of a god won’t be able to hear a prayer if its ears get destroyed.
He also pointed out that these acts of iconoclasm weren’t caused by some vandals "recklessly and randomly striking out works of art", but were carried out instead by labourers hired for the job.
