Whether or not you believe the biblical account is moot. Claiming that Moses is fictional does not change the fact that the "writers" described him as looking Egyptian (black), his wife was from Kush which bordered Egypt (again, black), and seeing how the Bible stresses the importance of genealogies, (for instance the Levite priests were required to be descendants of Moses's brother Aaron) it's would make absolutely no sense for the "writers" to make Moses something completely different than from what they were.
Authors and artists do it all the time.
People tend to create/describe characters in ways they are most familiar with.
It's fiction either way. And the Bible was written a very, very long time ago for a pretty specific audience.
It's you that missed the point.
Long ago in one way...
Long after the fact being described in another...
Have you ever seen white Jesus?
