To start the day …. “Michael Jackson …. Black Or White ….”!

BLACK OR WHITE

IN MEMORY OF MICHAEL JACKSON

Michael Jackson had a birthday last month.

We all miss his presence, his music and his talent.

I found this video this morning as I scrolled through my Facebook Timeline.

Even though Michael’s birthday has already passed, this tribute is worth a look.

At the beginning of the video, several current worldwide events are shown.

Black against white, terror attacks, continued wars, military might, police brutality, abuse of power, political status.

Anti-racism is one of the most important.

Today, August 29, we celebrate the king of pop and everything he did for us. Michael wanted to spread good in our world trying to change the bad and heal the world for some of its problems.

Unfortunately the world is still in a troubling state.

In these times many people look at various links on social media and unfortunately react with fear, hatred and immediately close their arms. Instead we should open up our arms and look to solve the problems together.

There should be room for everyone in this world.

No matter what you look like, what religion you have or where you come from.

We are all one.

That’s the purpose of this video. To remind all of us how incredibly important love and freedom is and to put something good out into this world. Something that will unite people from all around the globe.

The world is beautiful.

We should all enjoy it together.

Humanity should be our race.

Love should be our religion.

Flint, Michigan ….”They Don’t Care About Us”!!

~~February 9, 2016~~ 

“THEY DON’T CARE ABOUT US”

THE TWO MICHAELS

If you haven’t heard about the situation in Flint, Michigan, where the town’s drinking water has been contaminated with lead and other chemicals, you have really been living under a rock.

This is a major health issue, a major political scandal, a major “blaming you, not me” scenario.

Flint, Michigan has a population of roughly 100,000 residents.

Of these, roughly 10,000 are children.

They all have been exposed to water contaminated with corrosive materials and lead.

Many times, songs are vehicles of expression for the people.

I found this video through Michael Moore‘s Facebook page.

I’m sure the “King of Pop” wasn’t thinking about Flint, yet, how “right on target” are this song’s lyrics.

To make matters worse, it seems that Flint isn’t the only city with major water problems.

It seems it could happen anywhere where community policies are driven by greed.

The Flint water crisis is a drinking water contamination crisis in Flint, Michigan, United States that started in April 2014.

After Flint changed its water source from treated Detroit Water and Sewerage Department water (which was sourced from Lake Huron as well as the Detroit River) to the Flint River, its drinking water had a series of problems that culminated with lead contamination, creating a serious public health danger.

The corrosive Flint River water caused lead from aging pipes to leach into the water supply, causing extremely elevated levels of lead. In Flint, between 6,000 and 12,000 children have been exposed to drinking water with high levels of lead and they may experience a range of serious health problems. The water change is also a possible cause of an outbreak of Legionnaires’ disease in the county that has killed 10 people and affected another 77.

Flint Water Crisis (Michael Moore)

In 2011, the Governor of Michigan took over the city of Flint, a majority-African American city where almost half the population lives below the poverty line. He installed an un-elected “financial manager” to run the city for him.

In 2014, the Governor decided to switch Flint’s drinking water system from the Great Lakes to the toxic Flint River.

This is for the 102,000 men, women and children of Flint who are still being poisoned and lied to.

Pentatonix also released a new documentary, “On My Way Home,” Thursday, June 18, exclusively via Vimeo On Demand. The 90-minute documentary follows the group on their journey back home to Texas after they received their first platinum-selling album with “That’s Christmas To Me” and won their first Grammy.

With the expectations set higher than ever and the group riding a wave a success, PTX continued their domination on the road with their sold-out North American “On My Way Home Tour.” Mixed with live performances, fans will get a behind the scenes look as the group perfects their tour, starts recording their first original album and shares their experiences of how their wildest dreams are coming true.

A dear blogger friend taught me about this concept.

You can find Michelle here: http://mchelsmusings.wordpress.com/

~In her own words~

“IOTD” is image of the day, a concept I came up with. I teach visual meditative therapy – or in easy terms – a mini mental holiday. For some people it is very difficult for them to get their image right. I post an image a day for people to use in their mini mental vacay. Some are serious, some are silly, and some are just beautiful!”
