The only commentary I can add to the death of Michael Jackson is that I was once in Gary, Indiana, where Michael Jackson was born and it was one rough town. Urban decay and blight had moved in in the 1970’s and I remembered thinking; “Wow, this is where Michael Jackson was born.” The steel mills were mostly shuttered when I passed through and it was a real sad place.
It’s a testament to our society that anyone born anywhere can make it in America based on their talent, ability and hard work.
I hope Michael Jackson finds the peace that eluded him in life.
