It's a real challenge. The datasets all have genuine bias built in and identifying and correcting it is incredibly difficult. I mean, there WERE people of color in historic Europe, lots of them. So you can't correct this by just making them all white because that isn't necessarily more accurate. But yeah, we know that King George wasn't black.
