Darth vader was black but he wasn't necessarily african. although the actor who voiced him was.

lonesomedwarf posted:oh.... *sullenly puts thors hammer necklace back in drawer* There is nothing racial about Norse mythology. A few Nazis and a lot of neo-Nazis just happened to latch onto it. Mostly so they could come up with usernames for Stormfront.

Gods are a highly regional thing. Diversity is totally irrelevant when it comes to Gods. It's just not part of the equation.

Prettz posted:how much of their information about what was down there actually got back to the homeland? Hold on, let me check in with the comparative religion department at my local university to review the latest findings so I can back up my claim or actually I'll just approximate what feels right: Yes, the Norse were totally aware of blackpeople and even worshiped some of them
