Africa misses Michael Jackson
It is hard to believe that the King of Pop is dead………, but in Africa, he is not gone, he still lives in our hearts.
Through his music, he made considerable contributions to Africa . In 1985 at the climax of hunger and famine , he mobilised his fellow musician to record ” We are the world “ a dedication to raise not only funds but also awereness in the fight against the problem that was/is happening in Africa . Funds we raised ( about 60 million dollars ) and lives saved .
How about ” Earth song ” ? its undeniable this song raised awareness on the environment degradation that was at high rate at the moment in Africa, more so, he shot part of the video from Tanzania in East Africa in which he highlighted the issue of illegal poaching and hunting of wild animals. This did not only boost Tanzania´s tourism industry but also created awareness for the need to protect animals and stop environment degradation activities among various Africa countries.
OOOh, i cant forget ” Black or white ” , a sensational song addressing the issue of respect and stopping racism. How about ” heal the world” ? awareness on children´s rights. The list is never ending
Surely Michael, you helped making the world and Africa a better place, we dearly miss you.
My condoloscences to the Jackson family
Rest in Peace MJ.
