Michael Jackson 1958-2009: The Life and Legacy of the King of Pop

Fans around the world are still mourning the passing of Michael Jackson, the King of Pop. Jackson catapulted to fame on the Motown Records label as the youngest member of the Jackson Five but soon embarked on a solo career that made him the biggest star in the country and one of the most globally recognized entertainers. Michael Jacksons immensely popular music, dance moves and videos were known and loved across the world, but in the last decade of his life, it was his multiple plastic surgeries and allegations of child molestation that dominated media attention. We take a look at the life and legacy of the pop icon with Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Margo Jefferson, author of On Michael Jackson, and Duke University professor Mark Anthony Neal.
