Me and WonderKat are talking history and it’s like, just think about the Roman Legion

hamburgerjack:

You think that super fucking diverse group of soldiers

From an empire that went here to there

Wasn’t full of ALL KINDS OF FOLKS?

FROM ALL OVER THE PLACE?

You think everyone stayed home?

You think they didn’t go to different lands and settle?

You think all Romans were White, when the Romans gave out citizenship like they did?

I mean, you think back in the day, trading, mixing, knowing the people of Greece, North African -you think those people were White?

Really?

Go look through the lineage of emperors again

And the popes

Go look at the paintings and reliefs before they got white washed and re-branded

Just go look

Go look at those urns

Folks were capable of using color approrpiately

Think about that.

Seriously, think about that.

Then think about restoration projects, the people behind them and if they’re truly doing “restoration” or “revisions”
