Michael Jackson's Dream Lives On

Abstract: In this seventh episode, Elizabeth and Karin discuss the fact that this year is the seventh anniversary since Michael Jackson's death, and it is also the 400th anniversary since William Shakespeare's. We draw several connections between the need to celebrate Shakespeare's legacy and the ongoing debates about how to preserve Michael Jackson's. As always, our discussions take us into new and exciting places of thought and expansion. Enjoy! REFERENCE AS: Merx, Karin, and Elizabeth Amisu. "Episode 7 – MJ 7 Meets Shakespeare 400."
