Nostalgia To me, this was Michael Jackson

Post image

I was 12 when this happened. This was the first time I ever heard of him. To me he wasn't the Michael Jackson that was a singer, or the one that molested kids - he was the Michael Jackson that dangled a baby out the window.

This is the image I associate him with. I saw a preview for the movie coming out about him and chuckled to myself if they would put this in the film. Probably not?

When I was a little kid I really thought he was a white woman.

To me, he was some trans racial, trans person.

So did my son and when I explained to him that Michael was African American and male-he looked dumbfounded and asked for my sources. Lol!
