Eric Metaxas has said that Jesus was white.

Sure nonsense,

He knows nothing of Bonhoeffer either.

Before he returned to Germany, Bonhoeffer taught Sunday School at the Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem.

At the time, Adam Clayton Powell Sr. was the minister of the church.
His son, Adam Clayton Powell Jr., would later become Democratic Congressman from 1945 to 1971.
