Abstract: This month’s MJ Studies Today, (#95) continues the discussion on Michael Jackson as an advocate for social change. In Part 2, our columnist Kerry Hennigan focuses on “Earth Song” as performed on Jackson’s HIStory world tour, and on the artist’s association with politicians and other public figures in soliciting support for social issues about which he felt strongly or with whom he felt an affinity.
