REMOVING THE JUNK FROM THE COMMUNITY TRUNK

~In A World Filled With Hate - We must Emulate L.O.V.E.~
The purpose of this magazine is to provide the audience with specialized information from a unique
community; dedicated to and built upon the Love and Light of Michael Jackson as well as some others who
are making a difference.
We bring you this material by way of groups and projects inspired by Michael Jackson, other artists and
news sources.

This magazine will be dedicated to those projects with undertakings that build up the community; and actually possess the healing and light properties needed to
help change a world filled with darkness and a community that has become divided because of different
views.
We wish to provide the Community Trunk with information about new and delightful support projects.
There has been too much Junk in the old trunk and
it is time we start anew by peeling away the old and
rotted garbage and building a new community. Some
old things we should keep because they are precious
and should be preserved.
We hope you will be a part of the solution and not the
problem.
There should be no room for old junk in a new trunk. The things of no value has been thrown away to make
room for the new. We wish to be an avenue to the beautiful things and truth going forward by sharing those
things in this magazine when possible. We want to appeal to the rooted fans as well as the innovative.

MIND BLOWING DECISIONS CAUSES HEAD-ON COLLISIONS
Highly emotional conclusions leaving the scars from
violent impacts = MIND BLOWING DECISIONS.
A few years ago I solicited the views of other people on
this subject of which all of the opinions were worthy of
further thought or concentration.
However, two of the opinions hit closer to home:
1. CT: Each and every decision you make changes
your life. Take your time and think before you make
one!

Mind Blowing

Head on Collision

Mind-blowing - intensely affecting the mind or emotions; highly emotional

2. DP: If we
act instantaneously
and
with
emotion,
rather than
allow time
to
think
things through, Hasty decisions can lead to wasteful
then
conseoutcomes. - Reed B Markham,

occur as a result of making
a decision in haste.

Decision - the act of making up one's mind; a judgment, conclusion, or resolution reached or given; verdict
Collision - the conflict of opposed ideas, wishes, attitudes, etc; a violent impact of moving objects; crash
As we continue to watch the fast and immense destruction of the world and the people in it I question how
such a thing is even imaginable. After all wasnt this
world and the people in it fashioned from a foundation
built on Gods LOVE? Of course this will only apply to
those who believe in God.
As a baby boomer raised in the deep south and a person who fancied soulful music I think of the 70s international funk/disco musical band known as Heatwave.
I'm reminded of the song this group made popular
called Mind Blowing Decisions and the lyrics penned
to the song by Johnnie Wilder, Jr.

One speaks of emotions and the other about decisions

being life changing. To me, many fleshly decisions or
decisions made based on emotions tend to leave major
disasters for ourselves and many times for others
where there is no basis for the rationale or the underlying reason.

Although, Mr. Wilders lyrics were directed toward a

woman I make the association using any situation
where a highly emotional mind or one out of control can
cause violent impacts from resolutions they have
reached because they acted in haste. I must say that I
do disagree with one portion of the song in which Mr.
Wilder sings If you think long you think wrong.

With no rational approach to decide, we are unable to

make rational decisions. Decisions made in haste can
cause fatal damage caused by emotions that have not
been checked.

Making rash decisions can undermine long-term goals,

even with the best of intentions. We tend to look at only
There is some confusion in the words of this song bethe dazzling side or what we think the bright side is and
cause in the first verse he talks about taking his time,

positive side is always better but we

this may sound there is always someone or something lurking in the dark

Highlights of

June 25, 2015 Global Events

Fans and family paid touching tributes to Michael as the hashtag

#6yearswithoutMichaeljackson trended worldwide.
Jermaine Jackson joined the fans at Forest Lawn and
tweeted a day earlier of the ongoing void in his life left by his
brother's passing. He wrote: "Toughest day of year lies ahead
tomorrow, for us all. Our tears are drops of love in
Michael's name. Our smiles are for the memories. I'll be
joining some of you at Forest Lawn to pay my respects,
from noon. In our remembrance, family & fans are one."
Latoya Jackson tweeted a picture of herself with her
brother with the simple message: "We Love You! We Will
Always Miss You! #MichaelJackson"
Many others shared "Can't believe it has been
#6YearsWithoutMichaelJackson my heart still aches. He inspired me first when I was a
child to be a musician, I thank him,
" said one fan. "Gone but never forgotten,
we will always love and remember you."
"#6YearsWithoutMichaelJackson he was
my biggest inspiration, RIP :(" "Every
year, on this day, I can't help myself from
crying." "A legend never ever to be
forgotten.... His music will always go on
RIP".

The Dangerous girls Association could not missed the occasion to celebrate,
commemorate and radiate Michael Jackson's Love and Legacy. They were there with
a stand selling artisanal objects to help the Kenyan project. The total proceeds of the
sales were given to the association Cuore dAfrica (Heart of Africa) in order to give a
chance to Justine, a very young girl from Kenya, to complete her studies and have a
better future.

18

In Barcelona, Spain
there was the MJ World Cry 2015 organized by 4LOVEprojects.org.
MJWorldCry is carrying on Michael's vision and acts of kindness. Why World Cry? To
keep the dreams and ideas that Michael had during his lifetime alive and to continue
spreading the love by helping the needy and to follow Michael Jackson's footsteps as
a true humanitarian.

In France there was a two flash mobs organized by the dancers of the
Association DANSE ET SOLIDARIT at the Parc de Bercy and at Fontaine

Here their message and dedication to Michael:

Because you are our inspiration, because we try to perpetuate your style,
because your humanity makes us raise ourselves above, because you're you,
the inimitable icon ...MJ we miss you but our heart rejoices in putting you in the
spotlight in each of our classes, workshops and shows.

22

On July 5 at the Royal Palaggio VENARIA near Turin, Italy, there was the annual DINNER
IN WHITE, which was not a special commemoration for Michael but a new fashion
dinner that is taking place throughout all Europe. How does it work? People meet in the
agreed location, all dressed rigorously in white, and white should be the dishes and all the
items that decorate the table for the dinner.
This new edition catches the attention of the local MJ fans and they create an opportunity to
spend an evening sharing the common passion for Michael Jackson. Ada Tarchetti and
Tiziana Schellino, worked with enthusiasm to settle the dinner, have fun and also talk about
solidarity and make public understand that no matter where its always the right time to stir
the hearts of everyone towards others, exactly like Michael Jackson legacy teach us.

Six years on, and Michael Jackson's message and his memory live on,
immortalized in his music and his own prophetic words.

BIRTHDAY HEARTS FOR MICHAEL

AND

BOOKS FOR GARY CHILDREN

Hello Friends,
Every year for Michaels birthday I am involved in organizing and participating in a fundraising project for
children. It has recently come about that I will be in Gary
this year on Michaels birthday. Yay!! What I have decided to do this year is to bring (or send) copies of my
books Smile Effect and Ever After for the children of
Gary.
What I would like to do is to buy, with your help, as
many copies as we can, to give to the 7 other elementary schools in Gary and also the Youth Services Bureau. The cost of the books including shipping would be
$7 each. If any of you are interested in buying a book
(or books) for the children of Gary, you can send contributions by PayPal to mjeverafter@gmail.com I
promise to keep you informed about the funds collected and how many books we are able to buy and distribute.
ALSO, if anyone would like to send a birthday heart for Michael, I would be happy to deliver
them to Michaels Gary house on August 29! PM me for my mailing address. I am so excited to
finally be going to Gary!
Thank you all for your amazing friendship and support. Its all for Michael, and all for L.O.V.E
Brenda

DEMOLISH JACKSON STREET EYESORE

Michael Jackson was one of the greatest
entertainers ever. He was born in Gary
Indiana and lives at 2300 Jackson street.
Since his passing visitors from all over the
world visit the neighborhood and the street
is full of plight. I and others have been
working with my own time and money to
improve the two block long street that
leads to Michaels childhood home. This is
an abandoned home at 2346 Jackson and
is one of a few that if with your help
demolished can help the neighborhood
look better and motivate positive development in the area.
We would hope that visitors and residents alike would appreciate a "better experience" when
driving down the street the king of Pop and his family once lived. Most importantly the house can
be demolished and all debris removed for $8,000. Donate as little as you like or what you deem
appropriate for the cause. However, we will reward some donors with an invitation to a dinner
gathering where we would network more about this cause. We thank you in advance for any help
you may give financial or otherwise.
John Allen member of Mallen Equities and resident of 2300
block of Jackson Street. Contact me with any questions or
other ways you can help. NOTE this is an all or nothing effort meaning if the total goal of $8,000 is not met no funds
are not accepted or used for this project.
Recently I decided to make an effort to improve the look of
the neighborhood where Michael was born Gary Indiana. As
you all may know there are many visitors and no place to
use a restroom, have a snack and socialize.
The visitors, the fans and Michael deserve more. Therefore
I have been proactive and used my own time and money
with others to buy some plighted properties. I have repaired and rented some and now seek to
tear some of them down. PLEASE visit fundraising page if you can help. That aside we welcome
help and suggestions of any sort that will drive toward the goal of improving Michaels childhood
neighborhood and the experience of fans and visitors when they come here.

Published on Jun 22, 2015
Beat it by Michael Jackson, arranged and performed by Miguel Rivera
Follow Miguel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Miguelrivera...
NOTE:
I decided to start working on this arrangement because it was a great challenge. When you listen
to the chorus of the original song, you can hear the main riff (recorded by Steve Lukather) sounding together with the Michael's vocal melody and, of course, drums, bass and other instruments.
My objective was to play all of this parts together: the main riff, the vocal melody and the percussion part. I had to find the proper tuning and make good use of the harmonics but in the end I got
it. The tapping part is to remark on the great solo that Eddie Van Halen recorded for this song.
Hope you like it!

Name: Michael Gordon Occupation: Singer / Song Writer Place of Birth: Orlando,
Florida
Michael Smooth Gordon, was born in
Orlando Florida, and was born for stardom.
Michael began singing at the age of ten

scene for a while, however, he is back
better than ever and ready to conquer his
dream.
Michael continues to pursue his dreams,
wanting to expose his natural talents and

you will notice a total unique sound going back to the 80s and 90s but with a
modern feel and beat.
Michaels pursuit of his musical passion has been a driving force in his
life, and he will be a force to reckon with in the near future.

ARIZONA 10-YEAR-OLD, FORMERLY HOMELESS, TO

MAKE CLOTHES FOR KIDS LESS FORTUNATE

Xavier Elliot, 10, has started a project where he creates clothes for homeless kids.
Courtesy Stephanie Elliot
Stephanie Elliot said she was completely taken
by surprise when her son, Xavier Elliot, told her
that he wanted to make clothes for homeless
children, after learning what it was like to be
homeless himself.

"I think it affected him a lot," Elliot of Pheonix,

Arizona told ABC News. "Losing everything,
having to start all over again, and seeing all the
other kids in shelters some of them were
coming in from domestic violence and all they
had were the clothes on their backs. So, he
saw the need for it when we were in there."
Once outfits are completed, Elliot said she
and Xavier plan on donating them to a
UMOM Day Center in Phoenix, among many
other family shelters.

Elliot, a mom of three, said she and her family

were left displaced for nine years after her husband, a disabled veteran, was unable to receive
the necessary treatment for his post-traumatic
stress disorder.
Xavier has already attended a design fashion
camp and, with his mother's help, will perfect the
skills he's learned to start making clothes for
young people including a special "Ninja Turtles" dress for a little girl who, Elliot said, lost her
home in a fire.
"I sit out in my office sewing and he keeps me
company," Elliot said. "I was actually sewing a
purse one day and he said he wanted to save
his allowance to make clothes for homeless kids.
I really never saw it coming."

the "Ninja Turtles" dress.

Soon, Elliot said a friend encouraged her to

make a Facebook page to advertise Xavier's
new project titled "Clothes for Charity by the Elliott Family."

"He said 'Do you think theyll have outlets [at

summer camp] so I can take my sewing machine?' she said, laughing. "I told him to go and
have fun."

The Elevate Hope Foundation (EHF) is

dedicated to providing abused and abandoned
children an alternative method of therapy
through music and the arts, and funding special
services and programs that assist the needs of
these children using these fundamental
methods.
Co-founded in 2001 by entertainer Sheila
E. and business manager, Lynn Mabry, EHF
supports existing programs of their beneficiaries
through
monetary
funding
and
inkind donations e.g. musical instruments, art
supplies, and work stations complete with
computers,
keyboards
and
applicable
instructional software.

Sheila E explained the purpose of the initiative

during an interview to Access Holliwood while
presenting her memoir book 'The Beat of My
Own Drum, to public .
http://www.accesshollywood.com/sheila-etalks-prince-proposal-and-past-loves-inmemoir_video_2842837

Over 65 percent of their grant dollars will be

invested at the local community level. Outside
financial support fills a viable niche in light of
more conservative funding offered by the
federal government. Foster care systems and
outreach programs alike share the urgent
demand for funding and unite in this strong
commitment to serve the needs of

disadvantaged children.

Program that EHF supports and learn about

Main Beneficiaries of The Elevate

Hope Foundation s
Established in 1908 and during the past 100 years the
organization has evolved from an orphanage to a union of five
specialized agencies working together to provide excellent
educational and therapeutic services to families, individuals, and
the underserved population of children suffering from mental,
behavioral and emotional challenges.
Between residential, outpatient, community-based and education
services, Vista Del Mar provides 45 programs to nearly 6,000
children and families.
Services provided include, but are not limited to:
A non-public school for 300 youth with special education needs
Therapeutic residential treatment for severely emotionally
disturbed youth, ages 12-18
Individual and group counseling for children and families
Educational assessment and treatment
Child abuse prevention services
Early childhood care
Therapeutic services for children with autism and other
pervasive developmental disorders
Foster family and adoption services
The majority of youth that are served by
Vista Del Mar Child and Family Services
have been referred by: the Department of
Children
and
Family
Services,
the
Department of Mental Health and the County
of Los Angeles Probation Department.
Vista Del Mar's therapeutic residential
program provides services to youth, ages 1218, many of whom have been removed from
their families by court order because of severe abuse and/or neglect causing serious behavioral and
emotional problems. It is not uncommon for a resident to have had multiple placements within the
foster care system before he or she arrives at Vista Del Mar.
These youth have been moved from home to home for a number of reasons including suicidal
behavior, aggressive outbursts, sexual acting out and emotional disorders that foster parents are
unable to handle. They are in dire need of help when they are referred to Vista Del Mar. Vista Del
Mar is committed to giving them the best care possible.
The Elevate Hope Foundation exclusively supports Vista Del Mar's Arts Enrichment Program.

through experiential creative classes. The
program includes acting, dance, voice, art,
drumming, design, music recording, song

Vista Del Mar does not receive any public funds for the Arts Enrichment Program. It entirely
relies on support from private sources. Last year the Arts Enrichment Program served 296

Sheila E's Story

At the tender age of five I was sexually abused by a
babysitter. Growing up, I struggled with the shame of
my childhood experience, but fortunately I had an
outlet. Not until I was an adult did I realize how my
exposure to music at an early age assisted in the
healing process. Many abused children have
expressed a heartfelt desire to involve themselves in
the education of music and the arts.
It was evident that I had to do something with what I
had experienced for discarded and forgotten children
around our country. I decided that it was imperative for
me to share Gods goodness instead of lifes
tribulations. Although we go through many, it is more
important to share the ups and reveal the downs for a
healthy and positive change. I want to impart strength,
endurance, hope, kindness and love to those who feel
it is impossible to attain. Sharing my story and offering
my help in this process are true expressions of Gods
love in my life.
In my endeavor, I discovered that many have
expressed an urgent desire to involve themselves in the education of music as an outlet. I
know, as their families, even society has discarded them, the exposure and education of
music and the arts will be a life changing and saving experience. To give to the needs and
desires of these children will help enable them to cope with their emotional, even physical
challenges.
As a result, my manager and business partner, Lynn Mabry and I launched The Elevate
Hope Foundation. She too was sexually abused as a child by a family friend. She shares my
desire to assist children, even adults in the healing process. Our foundation is committed to
104

help the needs of those who desire to keep searching for answers, find an alternative to
express their pain and work towards enjoying a new life.
If you are one of those who are willing to help, please be one of our angels and give. If you
are one of those who needs help, begin to talk about it. Pain is only temporary. Your life is
yours to live and you can accomplish anything you put your mind to.
We created an avenue on our web site for you to tell your story. A place for you to read
about others like us. To be able to give someone hope by sharing a kind word. Please check out our
inspirations.With your help, we will soon build a Compassion Care Center Of The Arts in the
metropolitan Los Angeles Area for children to have a safe place to be educated in the arts, a place
to get away and enjoy an afternoon of peace and tranquility, a place where children and

parents alike can receive counseling to help them get through their trying times, even the
opportunity to learn the very basics in day to day living. This is our desire.

Be imitators of goodness as dearly loved children and live a fulfilled life of love. Thank
you for your support and love.

Compassion Care Center of the Arts

The Elevate Hope Foundation (EHF) will be introducing their plans to build the Compassion

"Somehow when I participate in the program I feel more positive because I have my mind
focused on something I enjoy like singing and I see a difference in my behavior." - DANNY

"Enrichment has made me happy about going to school" - DOMINIQUE

"I just want to say that this class has helped me and now I am way more confident about
myself. There is no way you can make this better. I love your class" - GUADALUPE

"I've been a lot happier since I've been in the program." - RYAN
"Enrichment has changed me to the better. If there is anything I can do, I would never

An estimated 794,000 children across the country were victims of abuse or neglect in 2007,
according to national data released in 2009 by the Children's Bureau of the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services. Child protective service agencies received an estimated 3.2
million

referrals,

involving

the

alleged

maltreatment of approximately 5.8 million

children.
The statistics indicate about 10.6 out of
every 1,000 children were victims of abuse
or neglect.
About 1,760 children died of abuse or
neglect. More than three-quarters (75.7
percent) of children who died were younger
than 4 years old; 12.9 percent were 4 to 7
years old; 4.7 percent were 8 to 11 years
old; and 6.5 percent were 12 to 17 years old.
Children in the age group of birth to 1 year had the highest rate of victimization at 21.9 per
1,000 children. More than one half of the victims were 7 years old or younger. Girls were
slightly more likely to be victims than boys.
EHF desires to offer essential funding needed to support community centers, programs, and
services that directly assist neglected, sexually and physically abused, and abandoned
children throughout, while creating the Compassion Care Center Of The Arts (CCCA) that
will assist Wards Of The State through music and the arts.

SPIRITUAL DEVOTIONS

SPIRITUAL LIFE - DAILY DEVOTION

One of a Kind
By Gene Markland

114

I saw the passing of a famous news reporter become an event covered by all the major news outlets. Her entire professional career was chronicled and displayed for all to see. Her coverage of national and international news became legendary.
Especially remarkable was her assignments to cover no less than ten United States Presidents. As
her fellow journalists gave her accolades, one phrase echoed repeatedly. "She was one of a kind."
So many unique individuals have come and gone in our lifetime: sports figures, actors, politicians
and explorers, some of which went to the moon and back. They, the most unique and famous, were
all called one of a kind.
Through Bible history we also learn the stories of other very unique individuals. We discover people
such as King David. He was a mighty warrior for God who slew Goliath, the giant enemy of God's
people. God used David to forge a nation, the people of Israel.
David was a man of great spiritual depth and understanding, yet a man of fiery human passion and
fallibility. However, he was a man after God's own heart. He was one of a kind.
Remember the story in the Bible of the woman who brought expensive perfume, her personal fortune, and anointed Jesus by pouring it out over His head? After a disciple chastened her for wasting it all, saying it could have been sold to help the poor, Jesus said that wherever the gospel is
preached around the world, her deed would be talked about in her memory. She was one of a kind.
In modern times we have men such as Billy Graham, another one of a kind who brought the gospel
of Christ to millions around the world.

Then of course there's Lord Jesus who gave up the splendor of heaven and His life there with Father God to come to earth and become one of us, the son of man. He did this to become the legal
sacrifice for our sin. He became our kinsman redeemer.
He took our place on the cross and became sin for us thereby enabling us to become the righteousness of God in Christ (II Corinthians 5:21 NIV). Yes Jesus is one of a kind!
Then there's you dear Reader. Yes you! God's word says that you are fearfully and wonderfully
made, (Psalm 139:14 NIV) formed by Him in your Mother's womb (Job 31:15NIV). God doesn't love
you because of what you do. He loves you because of who you areHis child.
Your heavenly Father loves you so much in fact that He gave His only begotten Son that you would
be saved and have life everlasting (John 3:16 NIV). He did this because He wants you for Himself.
Imagine that! He wants you! He loves you so much that He is absorbed with every detail of your
life. Even the number of hairs on your head draws His attention (Luke 12:7 NLT).
Why, you may ask, does God love you so much? Why? Because you are His child, and are truly
one of a kind!

Broken....
Broken.......
When your world is a stage, the best by far, with only an entrance
to heavens gate
of the greatest star.....
walk in this mans shoes, look with his eyes, love with his heart,
give with his hands.
know of this angel that walked this earth, of hisself value, his
worth
reach within the soul of every being, look beyond your own hopes
and dreams
you'll see the beauty one life could consume
like that of a broken heart string never to be amended
when you fight so hard not to believe that this is the end...
rest assured as the clouds still gather after a storm,there is still
a rainbow of such beauty and form..
a music note out of tune, a beated heart that's broken

and worn, a rose petal torn....A soul that still mourns..... TammyJones

The breath of being

the call of the night
sweeps and croons
over the mirroring tide
A shower of silver
over seas of dancing
light
imagined wings stir
in dreams of flight
A sky abloom with
evening stars
roaming winds
over the harbor bar
dreams of souls
who quest for light
graceful claims
on lovers sight

A thousand rivers
of untamed grace
ceaseless prayers
in webs of lace
gilded tears
like morning dew
wrapped in layers
of solitude

Restless skies
in wistful sleep
whispered hymns
of unity
unfolded Love
in gathered hearts
courage blooms
and fear departs

Michael, the Philanthropist

What better way to celebrate Michael if

not in the way he would want to? From
We are the world to the Heal the World
Foundation, Michael Jackson's life was
full of donations and humanitarian
efforts.

Fame but thanks to his social commitment, he also entered in a Hall Of Fame
very much less known in the media:
the Guinness Book Of World Records as
the Most Charities Supported by a Pop
Star. That is, he IS the pop star who
supported the highest number of
charities worldwide. During his career,
Michael Jackson supported 39 non-profit
organizations through direct donations
and through sponsorship of projects.

The beginnings as a boy with the

Jackson Five and then the worldwide
explosion with "Thriller." A success wornout in dance steps and the anguish of a
stolen life. A controversial life of light and
shadow. Successes and controversy;
The proceeds of the assets and of the
slanderous accusations and generosity
properties that sometimes Michael would
outbursts. An excessive wealth, a lot of
auction were often donated to charities.
wastes, but above ALL philanthropy.
He still receives posthumous awards for
it. Associations recognized his lifetime
With the Grammies and the gold records humanitarian work.
Michael entered the Rock and Roll Hall of
128

We can really state that the world lost a great humanist

because Michael Jackson helped often and so much, but
he did not speak about it and finally, also his social and
political commitment sometime hidden; but many times
censured by bigotry. Finally its surfacing, thanks to reactions before racism, cruelty and hate. Just to mention one
of the latest: his songs chosen as soundtrack to protest
against racism and terrorism in Baltimore, Paris and after in Tunisia.
Its easy to put together banality and sympathetic noises in
Michael Jacksons name, but it's a chore I willingly leave to the
various magazines, newspapers, fanzines and fan groups.

Finally, also those who have never had a high ranking on pop
music and definitely its not exactly their "cup of tea", begin to
understand that it's worth spending a couple of lines on a guy
like Michael Jackson: if only to figure out who, or rather, "what"
was Michael Jackson for many years compared to whole
international scenario.
So it must be acknowledged that in cases like this, avoid the
naive dichotomies that want private and public life now inversely
proportional (shadows in one, lights in the other), now inextricably linked (the eternal
Peter Pan with a mutilated childhood...) it is not really easy. In the face of a subject
such is Michael, even the use of certain proverbial and widely used expressions ("he
changed music panorama forever", "eclectic artist " etc) has an awkward sound.

Maybe because it was just Michael himself "legendary":

Everything that was around his figure was intended to build a symbol, almost a
prototype of the universal concept of a pop star.
Even for this, try to understand what really Michael Jackson represented for his and
our times, means above all, investigate what could have meant to be an icon inside
the colossal star system of the eighties.
Thats what, first of all, a fan or any Michael admirer should do.
129

So, it was really sad to read the other day this headline:

Disputed German Michael Jackson memorial may have to beat it

We have to step back and admit that MJ fans have always been divided way before his
death. This is sad because he always spoke of peace, love & unity and some of these fans
never followed the message he tried so hard to spread.
The history of the Memorial Munich started on June 25th 2009 with one single poster. Fans
were mourning together, remembering MJ under a statue of Renaissance composer Orlando
di Lasso (then later became MJ shrine), just opposite the entrance of the Bayerischer Hof
hotel, a place where Michael was a frequent guest. Although the memorial never received
formal approval by the Munich or Bavarian state authorities, over the years it has become a
kind of quirky landmark and a must-see stop for foreign tourists but we have been informed
that:
Rival factions enamored with the King of Pop beyond the grave are locked in a bitter
battle over who tends best to the American singer's memory, in a spat that has at
times even turned violent.
This was written on tabloidsthe very same tabloids Michael despised, the very same

tabloids that never mentioned Michaels philanthropy.

130

And all because the fans mood has grown

increasingly fraught, even hysterical?
"We tolerated this memorial until now but
have heard from the police about disputes
among fans and there have even been
criminal complaints," a spokesman for
Bavaria's
culture
ministry,
Henning
Giessen, told AFP.

towards MJ but each other!

That's what Michael would have wanted,

not this!
Im not going to mention the names of the
person involved even if all the community is

Frankly speaking I hope they will remove

everything at this point!
If Michael could see these childish fights
between the fans he would be so sad.
These are no real Michael Jackson Fans.
Not in their heart and I feel so sorry for
Michael and this stupid memorial. It's NO
honour for him!
There's no LOVE. There's war. I hope ALL
MJ fans take note and behave themselves
when congregating together.
YOU MJ fans HAVE to behave
yourselves! Love the MAN with HONOR,
RESPECT AND DIGNITY and not only

aware, especially because the names have

been printed in the tabloids reports.
"They remove our decorations, take down
our posters and crush the flowers we
plant."
"The organization MJ's Legacy
thinks that it has exclusive permission from
the city to decorate and maintain the
memorial," and the president of this
legacy is doing everything she can to get
us out of here but a lot of fans (from MJ
Memorial Munich) don't agree and want to
keep coming."
Whats wrong with those people?
Physical violence over something that
supposedly the goal of both sides in
honor and homage to Michael?
That crazy behavior is not honoring him
at all.
I am disgusted with these fools making
people think all MJ fans are raving lunatics.
So many EGOS.

131

This is why a lot of people don't

take the MJfans serious, just
because of this nonsense. If the
fans can't get along together in
honoring MJ in public then the
event should be closed down.
Just like when any other riot
happen.
What will people think (now that
all the issues surfaced over the
media) about such a miserable
situation?
That
they're
all
immature 20 year olds or
somethings?
But its not like that!!!
These are middle-aged women! It
is miserable that most of the
drama inside the community is
coming from older women and I
might even understand the reason: it is just about guilt!
They came on board when Michael died and pretended they have been lifetime fans.
For some obscure reasons they want to show to the others they know so much about
him instead of admitting that they never followed him when he was alive or had
stopped following him. I might have a simple suggestionwomen get a job, find a real
boyfriend, go out for dinner, see a movie and have sex!
See here the video (sorry its in German). http://www.muenchen.tv/mediathek/video/
michael-jackson-denkmal-wird-zum-streitpunk/
From what the man in the video says it almost
seems like he does not want the memorial
there because it's associated more with the
group and he says he would rather have some
plaque somewhere that is "not possessed by
someone" (I guess by the other group). It really
seems childish and petty. It's all about
Egocentric and arrogance.

The newspaper Berlin's daily

Tagesspiegel called it a "guerrilla
war" fuelled by "a lot of Prosecco".I
agrees at 110% with them!
I would like to remember to those MJ fans out there that " You ain't bad!!
132

You ain't nothing!

And this is NOT the way to spread Michael's message." In short, you are
dismissed! Michael Jackson does not need you. Keep listening to the music
and learn history of contemporary music but away from his legacy! Really!!
Michael with no such big fuss (and many personal worries) did as follows:
In 1992 he was the promoter of the foundation Heal the World Foundation now
closed. The objectives of the foundation, which over the years of its activity has
raised over $ 100 million, ranging from supply of medicines to needy children,
the fight against malnutrition, support for homeless and commitment against
child abuse.
The Dangerous World Tour proceeds
(which began in June 1992 and ended in
November
1993,
where
Jackson
performed in front of 3 million and a half

people during 67 concerts) went all to

the Heal the World Foundation.

In 1993, during the Super Bowl, Michael

performed
Heal
the
World
accompanied by a chorus of 750 people
from around the world. Jackson not only
donated the proceeds of his appearance
to his foundation, but also sent a
message of peace, harmony between
races and hope for children.
During the crisis in the Balkans,
Jackson, always through the Heal The
World Foundation, sent to Sarajevo 46 tons of medicines and financed training
on the abuse of alcohol and drugs.For his efforts against HIV-AIDS, apartheid,
the low rate of vaccination of children and other humanitarian causes in Africa.

133

In April 2004 Jackson received the Humanitarian Award from The African

Ambassadors' Spouses Association.

Not to count the mythical We are the World,

the song he wrote with Lionel Richie in 1985
which sold 20 million copies and proceeds
were invested in humanitarian causes in
Africa.

TIME HAS NO CONSCIENCE but we do...It has been 6 years last month on June
25th, 2015 that you left us and we havent been the same since.
The last breath you took was ours too...When Jermaine announced your death, the
whole world died with you Michael... You went through so much on this earth and now
you are at peace and our hearts and souls rejoice in that but not the absence of your
presence.
You will always be more than just a lingering within, what you left in us is grounded in
our hearts and the very depths of our souls. You hypnotized us with your voice,
stunned us with your moves and electrified us with that smile of yours. We know and
have memorized your messages in the songs you gave us. We grieve your death, celebrate your birth and visit you often.
We will always love and cherish you forever and a day..... R.I.P....MIKE.... Signed by

SoulTrain.com Exclusive: Tevin Campbell Getting Back to the World

Love this quote by Tevin Campbell. An excerpt taken from the interview above in August of
2012.
I always say that I have to live my life for me. Everyone has to go home at night and live
behind closed doors. No matter what you think you know about a celebrity and what they
are doing, you truly dont know. Everybody lives behind closed doors. The only way that I
can live and share my life is through my music. I tell my story through my music. Back then,
it wasnt like that since I was singing songs that were written for me, too mature for me.

But Im 35 years old now, so people will hear my story, because Im writing a lot on this album. As far as what I do in my personal life, if you get to know me then youll know. But I
have friends and family that love me for who and what I am. I dont need other people
to love me for who I am, I need them to love me for my music and if they cant do that
then youre not a fan. I divulge a lot in my album. I know the questions that people
ask, so really the only way youll get to know me is through my music.
~Tevin Campbell~
What a mouthful
and some of us get
it Tevin Campbell.
The "Music" is the
artists' way of communicating with the
fans but many
times we go WAY
over that boundary
line.

Catching Fire: Michael Jackson Fan Tributes

in the Week of the 25th June
We all deal with the week of the 25th June in our own way. In the
past, the sheer injustice of Michaels death has inspired such absolute rage in me that it has helped mask my
despair. This year was different. I was overcome with an all-encompassing sorrow and sat depressed in the
dark for days, unable to engage with the physical world, never mind the saturated sadness of social media as
our community poured out heartbreaking, bereft tributes.
A couple of days ago, the fog began to lift and I managed to distil the devastation of the previous days into a
poem for Michael (see below).

TWO FRIARS AND A FOOL

How White Privilege Misled Me About
Michael Jacksons HIStory
So when the media sold the narrative that Michael Jackson was falling apart, even
if there was truth there, there was also a sinister purpose. The purpose was to dis-

tract from his legitimate anger, his serious social commentary, by homing in on his
personal failings. The cult of celebrity is all about serving as a distraction from
things that matter. When Michael Jackson tried to talk about things that mattered
we responded by veering even harder in the other direction. We drilled in on his
cosmetic surgery, his Neverland Ranch, his pop-star lifestyle anything to distract
ourselves from a black man expressing discontent with the state of the world.
Im sorry that I was fooled, and missed the opportunity to be sensitized to the subject of race much earlier in my life by an artist I loved so much I literally woke up
singing his music every day for years. Tonight I watched Spike Lees video for
They Dont Really Care About Us over and over while my family stared in confusion over where the Christmas music had gone. I stared equally befuddled as I
watched the choreography and lyrics evoke everything from mass incarceration, to
police brutality, to income inequality. How had I missed this? White privilege, thats
how.

Hailed as the criminal trial of the century. Two
years of speculation in the media. Wall to wall
media coverage from 2003 to 2005, 2000+ accredited journalists, yet the defense case was
invisible. The public were bombarded with salacious prosecution focused media commentary.

On 13 June 2005 Michael Jackson was acquitted of

10 felony charges and 4 misdemeanors. Those disgruntled in the media,
labelled the acquittal celebrity justice. If you want to find out the truth,
start reading this book.
This is a unique book looking at the trial testimony. It provides an indepth
look at the trial from the first day. It offers the reader an insight into the
case that was not provided by the media coverage in 2005. This mini
series shines a light on the defence case, and the trial testimony.

28 February 2005 was the first trial day.
