because in 1909, there was no way in hell the US Supreme Court was going to admit that Jesus Christ was anything other than white.

That court case came about because a Syrian immigrant police officer arrested a white criminal from a wealthy family. That crook's family sued on the basis that a "foreigner" (tan) couldn't arrest an "American" (white).

The case I references was In Re Najour but here's a newer case that's held up as precedent even today:
