Michael Jackson Black or White cultural appreciation

What makes Michael Jackson’s “Black or White” video so impressive is how it celebrates other cultures the right way. Instead of borrowing elements, he brought in actual people from those communities to show themselves, and kept his own look minimal so their traditional outfits and dance moves stayed the focus. That’s how you appreciate without appropriating. #MichaelJackson
