I was a year when I first had my earliest experience with Micheal Jackson's songs. My mom actually said that on my first birthday, I tried to do a happy jump when songs like Beat it, Thriller, Bad, Smooth Criminal and the rest played. I was so inspired by Michael Jackson that when I was 3, I would wear my white socks on my right hand. He was the most popular singer songwriter and performer at that time and continues to inspire different artists, songs, genres and dance moves. He has influenced different generations and continues to do so to generations of new. This leads to the intent of this blog.
Recently, Michael Jackson or as I call him, the real MJ was portrayed in a documentary, Leaving Neverland, as a pedophile who molested young children. In the documentary (that I refuse to waste my time on), 2 white males were interviewed and gave their statements on how MJ masturbated in front of them and touched them inappropriately. Apparently, there are more people who are also coming out to say that they were molested as well which may lead to his remains be exhumed for DNA testing. Now that we got all the lies out, it's time we get to the facts about MJ, his life and how that relates to the accusations.
Here are the facts. It is important to note that the two white men who have come out to state that MJ molested them were witnesses in his 2005 and gave sworn testimonies where they stated that he did not molest them. MJ was chemically castrated as a child by his late father, Joe Jackson and had zero testosterone. This means MJ could not produce sperm cells or father a child.This means his two children are not biologically his. We cannot state this as a fact but any one can see that those children have no atom of MJ in them. They lack the MJ effect or bear any resemblance to MJ. It cannot be denied that MJ loved children because he saw himself as one. The fame and his late father cost him his childhood and in many ways, he somehow craved that stage in his life. This made him make friends with children who he found to be innocent, pure and needed to be protected. Similarly, MJ was eccentric, shy and exhibited child like characteristics on many occasions but he made it his job to protect children and not molest them. Another reason MJ loved spending time with children is that they did not judge him but loved him for who really was as he had very few people that he trusted. MJ gave over 350 million dollars to charity, sought all over the world for a liver to save a dying little child, gave all the earnings from man in the mirror to charity and once risked his life to save a child who was a potential victim of a car accident. MJ's love for children was also seen when he visited hospitals to spend time with children and when he flew Mickey and Minnie mouse to surprise and life the spirits of sick children.
These allegations and documentary fail to highlight the fact that MJ was under FBI surveillance for over a decade with nothing to substantiate claims of child abuse. Although, these allegations attempt to tarnish the image of the legend, Michael Jackson, the facts cannot be blotted out from the record books. MJ was exonerated from his 2005 case due to no evidence of child abuse. He broke the Guinness book of Records in album sales surpassing Elvis Prestley and the Beatles. He loved, cared for and sought to protect the children. He was an advocate for black people, using his voice and platform to stand against injustice towards blacks. And though he is no longer with us and his music stripped from the radio, his soul and his voice echoes in every rhythm and every song we listen and dance to.

Nota Bene: It is highly pertinent and human to show love to people around us even though the same act of love may be utilised as tools to harm us. We exist not to just love ourselves but others so they can also reciprocate in a hope to make the world a better place. It starts with the man in the mirror.
