THE LEGACY PROJECT MISSION STATEMENT
Our motto is: MJJC Legacy Project - Honouring, Preserving, Defending.
We honour Michael’s legacy by upholding the highest standards, by our conduct on and off the MJJC board, living our lives with integrity, compassion and tolerance.
We strive to establish a positive presence on MJJC and to ensure that our mission is clearly understood and supported. We want to inspire others to aspire to emulate Michael's example of living a purposeful life.
We also strive to become an active and integral part of the community of fan sites and discussion forums, sharing information and partnering with them.
The Project will also initiate and manage projects that showcase Michael’s creative and philanthropic legacy.
It is important that we defend Michael by challenging lies, mis-representations and mis-conceptions about his life and his work.
Ultimately, the MJJC Legacy Project team is committed to standing strong and together for Michael, now and in the years ahead.
______________
At this time the project has two main components: media advocacy and living legacy.
Media Advocacy
This team's purpose/role is to:
- to advocate for fair and accurate reporting on Michael Jackson
- to express gratitude for coverage that is fair and accurate
- to correct erroneous information, providing the correct information with supporting evidence (where possible)
- to galvanise members to respond to stories/features in the media
- to organise a cadre of writers to draft official responses from MJJC and to decide when these official responses are required (we have to be careful not to bludgeon when a swat would suffice)
Living Legacy Archive
This action team
- collects, preserves and promotes documents and videos that honour Michael
- establishes links with fans who are already doing this work, supporting and promoting their work
- produces Fact Files and FAQs
- supports the writing of 'academic' essays on Michael's work, philanthropy and his cultural impact and encourages intelligent discourses on these
- compiles and maintains a database of information on fan projects
We welcome any suggestions and ideas so that we can move forward as a force of unity and strength for the man that we all love. Feel free to PM me!
Keeping the faith
