Were Neanderthals white?

(History with Kayleigh) NEANDERTHAL MUSEUM We know that Neanderthal DNA has influenced the modern human (Homo sapien sapiens) genome in quite a few ways.

I think of myself as a Nordic Anglo-Saxon beauty

But did Neanderthal's DNA influence our skin tone and hair color? Why are prehistoric Neanderthals around Europe so often depicted with pale skin and stereotypical Caucasian features? How accurate is the scientific racism or artistic license of these textbook depictions?

We're more wolf and bear than human, and we don't know to come in out of the snow to caves.
