Michael Jackson clearly denied ever wanting to change his race. He explained that he suffered from vitiligo, a medical condition that causes the loss of skin pigmentation. Jackson stated that the condition was medically documented and confirmed by doctors, and that he used makeup and prescribed treatments to even out his skin tone as the disease progressed. He also emphasized that he was proud to be Black and described accusations that he was trying to change his race as deeply hurtful and upsetting.

“Of course Michael would still be alive if I was in his life. I had told some people, some friend that if I don’t get to Michael he ain’t gonna be here for long, he won’t be with us long and I called the shot to exactly what had happened. I just didn’t like to see him laying in the casket. I wouldn’t even go there because I did not want to remember him like that. I wanted to remember him life and dancing on stage. He’s my son! ❤️‍🩹” — Joe Jackson says when he was asked if Michael Jackson would still be alive if he was in his life.

I can’t believe I just found real footage of Michael Jackson showing his vitiligo. In this footage, he was seen rehearsing; no makeup, no flashy outfits, no stage effects, no distractions. Just Michael Jackson being Michael Jackson with his vitiligo that he hid from the world.

Michael Jackson explained in an interview what happened to his skin, but the world never believed him and kept accusing him of bleaching it, even though he had vitiligo, a disorder that destroyed his skin pigmentation. It hurt him deeply😔
