>First off, six percent of the Knights of the Round Table were men of color. Granted, that’s only three out of 49 men, but the entire expanded United States Congress is hovering around 13% people of color and only has one black Senator.

>Moriaen (also spelled Moriaan, Morien) is a 13th-century Arthurian romance in Middle Dutch.

Is this considered canon?

This is actually being taught in our schools, not because of what OP posted but because a legion of black roman soldiers were station here in roman times.

The Roman Empire didn't even have any posessions in Sub-Saharan Africa, how is that possible?

All i know is that remains of roman soldiers found in northern England showed that the roman soldiers in question were African, thus our wonderful government decided WE WUZ.

This whole """argument""" is retarded, but to be completely honest with you familia, it's likely that Roman Age North Africa's inhabitants were darker-skinned than today. Arab conquerors fucking destroyed the environment forcing many tribes to move or become nomadic and brought a considerable number of immigrants over the centuries. Darker-skinned berbers could be a right representation of what your average Roman Age North African could've looked like

The Romans actually colonised North Africa, though.

Clearly the person who wrote this has no proper education and is unqualified to write such articles.

The picture says in Early Modern German: "Vom S. Maricen und siner geselschaft"

Which literally means: "Of St. Maurice and his company".

The man in the picture is not an Arthurian knight, but a 3rd century Saint who was very commonly depicted as a black man (albeit the historical Maurice may well likely have not been black).

The fact that St. Maurice didn't immediately come to mind of the person who wrote this only indicates a lack of education. As soon as you see a black guy in armour - in particular a black guy in armour bearing the insignia of the Holy Roman Empire, you should immediately think of St. Maurice.
