Here's info on another great group that's fighting the good fight and making a difference. I encourage you to join them! Thanks Alicia.
I didn't know where to post this, but it's my vindication Facebook group called VindicateMJNow. We're working to show Michael as a human being just like the rest of us & give the truth on as many of the falsehoods that were believed & sread about him. We strictly prohibit bashing the media. As much as we may want to, it serves no purrpose & may make things harder. At some point, we hope to have a website & we may need the media to help promote us. The group description is below.
VindicateMJNow is a collaborative movement of like minds to share- openly and logically- valid reasons why Michael Jackson (MJ) was incapable of the heinous crimes leveled against him in 1993 and again in 2003. This movement also has a blog associated with it where the original administrator writes editorials on aspects of Michael's life that have been widely discussed. The issues tackled have, so far, been the most controversial aspects of his life. Other group members are welcome to write their own blogs for the movment; if they wish. The blog name is Remember The Time. There is also a Twitter page associated with the group. It is called MJHumanity. At some point, we hope to have a website for everyone to visit. When that comes, an announcement will be made.
Trust us, you will NOT find any other Michael Jackson forum exactly like this one. We may be MJ fans, but we're NOT fanatics. We're comfortable talking about the "whole" Michael Jackson, 'the imperfect human being', as well as the perfected performer. We clearly understand he may have been viewed as 'God-like' but he was not 'God'. He was human, with all of his insecurities, his joys, his fears, his inhumane strengths, his contradictions, his unconditional love, his good and not-so-good decisions. In other words, he was no different than you or me.
This is exactly what we hope we can convince others - on the fence, or otherwise, - to see.
We have no time limit on this movement's mission. Throughout this process we aim to bring like minds of all walks of life here. With that in mind, we're tossing out a 'very long' welcome mat to those who can provide the most credible explanations of his innocence, specifically sharing of thoughts by the famous- or infamous who knew him best. This would include his friends, his professional colleagues, his staff, his family, the children who knew and adored him, the parents of these same children or anyone who has seen the whites of Michael Jackson's eyes beyond a fleeting moment in a crowd. And, of course, his adoring supporters, like many of us... who remain convinced of his innocence.
NOTE: Here's what VindicateMJNow is NOT:
1. A place to spew angry comments about anyone or any 'thing' that you believe may have killed him or led to his ultimate demise on June 25, 2009. And, YES, this means blaming the media who went after his 'strangeness' with a vengeance. Grieve the loss of him. We all do. Just don't bring it here. It's too late to place blame. Let's spend our energies 'making-it-right-for-Mike' by finally implementing what should have been done years ago: alternative, logical, clinical and professional views that help explain personal 'differences' between the 'everyday' person's view of 'normal' and MJ's.
2. A place to tell us why you think he was guilty. Don't even go there. We know all of the reasons you think this. VindicateMJNow is designed to present the other side of this equation- offer a different perspective. We may never change your mind; and that's OK. Just don't try to change ours.
3. A place to sell something (not otherwise approved by the forum administrators).
4. A place to argue. Will not be tolerated. Debating in a civil manner, yes. Anything less, no.
5. Unmoderated posts. To ensure appropriate language and process is followed, all posts will be moderated- trust us- this is for your protection, too.
