I’m not sure why your question was downvoted. The grammar may have confused people, or maybe they perceived the question as racist somehow.
Probably the second option.
A quick search returned results about black Madonnas
I tried searching this and only found black Mary statues. Is this what you’re refering about? If yes, well, it’s not that common. 99% of churches you go to have only white people statues.

Oh. I think this line is confusing me:
Why is every statue I see at churches of black people?
But you mean to say you haven’t seen statues of black people in any churches you’ve been in? That aligns with my experience.
History is long and complicated, but racism is a big factor. Some white people can only relate to other white people. They may not feel comfortable worshipping a Jesus who is too dark-skinned, they would rather depict him the way they most want him to be as opposed to what is most likely.

Jeez, I miswrote my line. I meant to ask why were they all white.
