This situation takes me back to when my own father died....because like MJ he had the opportunity if he saw fit to PUT the record straight to make that connection... The fact is he never did and because of his lack of in action those with a vested interest are able to fill the viod with their own narrative...

I agree with you that Black did support MJ, especially in the early years..however i also believe it is true that an element of blacks did reject MJ....and imo for good reason..it wasn't enough that he made himself look arifically WHITE, or worse that he took up time after time with THE most dyam arse bluefoot... For me he took the biscuit with the children..not only by insulting our collective intelligence by claiming they were his biologically.. but also flaunting them ...

So i'm not going to front and say because the man is dead that, his behaviour was no an insult to us and our culture, and i'm not going to lie and say i lost all respect for him 1st after BLACK or WHITE, and then the other bullshit stuff he did..

I accept that the man in all probablity had at best a personality disorder or as I suspect a full blown mental health issue .. but that said its not entirely true that BLack did reject him out of hand... But what is also not true is for these people to claim he was 'loved' or embraced by whites.. They were laughing at him, and they absolutely took the piss out of him at every corner without mercy..
