Original Note:

There is no reason to believe that Beethoven was Black: genealogical evidence going back to the 1400s shows that Beethoven's family was Flemish. Speculative anecdotes from the 19th century about his swarthy complexion, broad nose, coarse, black hair are unsourced and racist. https://www.snopes.com/articles/459202/was-beethoven-black/ https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/was-beethoven-black-and-why-might-be-wrong-question-ask-180975159/
