AN ENTERTAINER:
"He's been the soundtrack of my life... As a black man I feel the mess of multimedia coverage of the last 15-20 years is just a bunch of crap to me. Yesterday was a sad and a bad day for me, because I think Michael Jackson died of a broken heart and a broken soul. The same fame that he thrived on that these boardrooms create, I think he felt chained to it. I think it was painful. The thing is the hypocrisy of this country. Now fame means the worst side of you will get the most coverage. It’s kind of haunting that these record companies wouldn’t give him the light of the day or these radio stations wouldn’t give him the light of the day over the last couple years, but now that he died everybody’s on his jock, so to speak. It makes me angry because in the end, no matter how much he messed with himself or his appearance, which to me didn’t mean anything to anybody when it came down to him wanting to entertain and just make people have a good time, I just thought all of that was irrelevant. And now you see all these areas of multimedia praising him and jocking him. But once again, as a black man dead, it’s just convenient for American media, and much of the people living in it. I feel kind of crappy for the hypocrisy of this country and its coverage." -- Chuck D. (theTakeaway.org)
A CHAMELEON:
"I think that this is a country of self-reinvention. But you always pay a price, no matter what you do. We’re used to reinvention of the pauper becoming a millionaire, the fat girl becoming thing, people changing their nose and their accent, but Michael, I think what strikes me is that I don’t know what Michael would have been if he could have been anything.... He was literally not comfortable in his skin. He couldn’t seem to find that space where he was who he was -- Farai Chideya (theTakeaway.org)
A SPIRITUAL LEADER:
The gift that Michael Jackson gave to us is, in many ways, a religious one, for religion functions to bind us to one another and God. [...]
As we give gratitude for this life and what it represented, let us remember that a lovely man with deep emotional sensitivity made a spirit-filled effort in the realm of American popular song and dance. This transcendent figure--in his own way--wound up attempting to change the world; he brought a song of love and helped us find greater joy. He helped bind us more closely to ourselves, to one another and to that which is greater than us all. He transcended this planet after a half century.
Until today, I have never known a world without Michael Joseph Jackson physically alive in it; and right now it feels like a lesser place without him. -- Andre C. Willis

For those of us who loved Michael, and more importantly, know the truth, there is nothing the media has to say that I feel the need to hear. I, and millions of others who have the perception to recognize the manipulation and self-interested bias within the printed and visual media; we did not and still do not blindly follow the line taken by the media ( aided by Tom Sneddon ) regarding Michael Jackson. I am not interested in Nancy Grace, Diane Dimond's, Martin Bashir’s or CNN’s summations of whether or not Michael was ‘black’ or ‘white, ’gay, ‘guilty or ‘wacko.’ Even now, michael is being spoken about in the English and American press as a ‘drug addict' How quickly the media revisions its own part to play in the systematic and unprecedented attack on Michael’s mental and emotional health, the erosion of his rights as a human being and the cultivation of the tangible ‘intent-to harm ’ machine that gew up around Michael in the pursuit of ratings and money. For those of us who love Michael and have had no real outlet to express our feelings, it has been beyond frustrating these past 20 years to witness this unfolding tragedy. Be under no illusion, there are billions of us, and we will not rest until the truth about this peerless, beautiful, rare human being and humanitarian and unparalled artist is known. As Michael said: Lies run sprints, the truth runs marathons.

p.s If you care about Michael, please do NOT buy Ian Halpern’s book. He was exposed years ago as a malicious liar by the journalism industry, and yet again he is distorting the truth about Michael and making money out of him. Please do not support this parasite. Buy Viagra Online

He lived in a world very few of us could understand. I think not having a childhood and the abuse suffered at the hands of his father affected him deeply and very much shaped this tragic figure he turned out to be. I suspect he had a lot of hangers on, probably couldnt trust the adults around him and found solace in being around children, who represented innocence and didnt want anything from him. Cialis

I could never understand the notion of a 40 yr old sharing a bed with children not his own but I also had a very hard time believing he was guilty of what he was accused of. Clearly he needed psychological help but I think there was no one with enough guts to help him get it.
