I didn’t know that the apostle John was a black man... I thought he was Jewish...
Being Jewish did not/does not mean being light skinned. Simon of Cyrene was most likely black. Legend has it that the Queen of Sheba/Ethiopia took Judaism home with her after meeting with King Solomon. Also, the Diaspora would have sent Jews across known civilization
....then again you are probably being highly sarcastic.
