Because they are white and so is God. Satan is black.
Adam sees the Devil in his true colors.
1. Then God ordered Satan to show himself to Adam plainly, in his own hideous form.
2 But when Adam saw him, he feared, and trembled at the sight of him.
3 And God said to Adam, 'Look at this devil, and at his hideous look, and know that he it is who made thee fall from brightness into darkness, from peace and rest to toil and misery.
4 And look, 0 Adam, at him, who said of himself that he is God! Can God be black? Would God take the form of a woman? Is there any one stronger than God? And can He be overpowered?
5 "See, then, 0 Adam, and behold him bound in thy presence, in the air, unable to flee away! Therefore, I say unto thee, be not afraid of him; henceforth take care, and beware of him, in whatever he may do to thee." 6 Then God drove Satan away from before Adam

they are all artists depictions of what a person looked like .It might depend on what part of the world they were from . maybe even politics. Whatever people they were familiar with . Maybe there mama or sweet hart or dad or brother. Remember artists needed to sell there paintings then just like now . I don't think they could sell a painting of a black Jesus (Praise GOD) in Rome when a lot of these picture's where painted . i don't no of any place in the bible that says any thing about race . The Bible mentions Nubians or ethiopians in both the old and new testament

It was white folks that portrayed Adam and Eve on canvas first; their version became the most popular ones used.
However, if you do some research in the area you will find there are many portrayals of all the people you've mentioned as all different colors.

** Why is adam and eve still being showed as a white person? ***
Usurp, is a real good word for it.
( The birth of Adam)
The Quran 15.26:
And certainly We created man of clay that
gives forth sound, of black mud fashioned in shape.
If you look at the human race dispassionately there appears to be three branches of the human family. These constitute, ******* type, Caucasoid type and Mongoloid type. We all to some degree carry certain characteristics of each to varying degrees.Theologically i like to think of it as Adam ( the first male human ) possessing the ******* trait. And Eve ( the first female human ) possessing both the Caucasoid and Mongoloid traits.

who cares. White black brown yellow green, red ..
I would LOVE to meet the person, who has survived millions of years to let us know the correct color of all of the people back then. They are SYMBOLIC PEOPLE for everyone. That's why you can NOW find different colored Jesus pictures, Santa's etc.
So just get over the color issues already. It would be a lot nicer less prejudices if everything was in black and white only.

I don't know, why was they even shown/believed they were white to begin with? I think they all comes from a man who wrote a bible to tell people how to live their life. So therefor those people will most likely always believe what their bible tells them and not what some scientist proves.

Adam was supposed to be Jewish, since that's where the myth originated. Jesus was Jewish too, if he had existed. Every race has countless first human myths. Read some of the African ones, they're pretty cool!

They were from the Mid East. Those people have a brown skin color. It's not black. Most of the pictures I see show them with a brown skin.

Well it's a good question because supposedly God made man in his image, so if Adam was black that makes God a brotha, too.
I hope you're right and God is black. That means heaven will be a funkier place to spend eternity ...er, if they don't send me the other way.

Scientists have also proved that we evolved from rocks also. So you can't believe what they all say.
The first people i believe were neither black nor white, but inbetween. Similar to arabians, jews etc.
God bless!!
