Michael's Note to Self

[Victorious]

So i wonder what you guys think of this note?

He says (to himself) that he wants to sell 200.000.000 records so that white children can grow up with a black hero and they don't grow up prejudiced.

I never heard or read this reasoning before or after this and I think it's very interesting. For one it provides a clear (and novel) answer to the much heard 'why did all those white kids hang out with him?'

Means nothing. Neo-nazi skinheads have been known to like the music of reggae & ska artists. White supremacist senator Strom Thurmond was friends with James Brown. In the Jim Crow era, Black artists performed in clubs that only allowed a white audience and they could not stay in white hotels or eat in their restaurants. A well known one was the Cotton Club.
