Ryan White was diagnosed with AIDS in 1984 at the age of 13 after he received a tainted blood treatment for hemophilia.. At that time, AIDS was poorly understood, and despite doctors having said he posed no risk to other students, many parents and teachers rallied against his attendance when Ryan tried to return to school. A lengthy legal battle with the school system ensued, and media coverage of the case made Ryan into a national celebrity and spokesman for AIDS research and public education.
In the late 80's, Michael Jackson reached out to Ryan and befriended him. Ryan visited Neverla...
IMPORTANT UPDATE ABOUT THE "WE ARE THE WORLD" REMAKE PROJECT
Several people submitted videos for the project, but others asked for more time to submit theirs, so I'm pushing back the deadline to April 25th.
Please send your submission as soon as possible! I'd like to have the final video released before the end of April.
Unfortunately, people's attention is slowly drifting away from Haiti. People first reacted because they were shocked and moved by the situation, but even though the media don't show what's going on there as much as they did few months ago, there is still a situation o...
25 years ago, on January 28, 1985, more than 45 of America's best musicians went to a recording studio after the American Music Awards ceremony to record together, under the name "USA for Africa", one of the most famous humanitarian anthems ever, "We Are The World".
The song, penned by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, and produced by Quincy Jones, became the biggest selling single of all time and raised more than $63 million, which allowed USA for Africa to support more than 500 projects and help millions of people in 18 countries in Africa.
Tonight after the Grammy Awards ceremony, to...
Following the violent earthquake that hit Haiti last week, Make That Change has decided to create a fundraising team on the UNICEF website for all the Michael Jackson fans who want to come together and help the victims of this terrible earthquake: Team Michael.
The effort is critical in Haiti, where almost half the population is under 18 years of age. UNICEF is there to help save children by providing health care, water and sanitation, and adequate nutrition.
UNICEF is also there to bring immediate protection to children who have been abandoned or separated from their families. And UNI...
It all started with a conversation with my friend Marion while we were standing in line for the premiere of "Michael Jackson's This Is It" last October.
I was thinking about the fact that this Christmas would be our very first Christmas without Michael Jackson, it would also be exactly 6 months to the day he died, and I felt it would be the worst Christmas of my life.

D’autant que d’après le journal de TF1 ce midi, les plus grands sont obligés de ne pas dormir jusqu’à minuit, afin de surveiller les plus jeunes, sinon on les kidnappent durant leur sommeil. Où ils dorment à la belle étoile, ou dans des abris de fortune. Mais personne n’est à l’abri.
Il y en a qu’on a volé, que les associations humanitaires ne retrouvent pas.
Les enfants qui avaient été enlevés, ont retrouvé leurs parents. (pas tous, mais tous ont leurs parents).
On les fait marcher en groupe pour qu’on ne les enlèvent pas.
C’est triste tout cela.
