To this day, many still assume Michael Jackson bleached his skin to appear white – that it was a deliberate cosmetic choice rooted in shame about his race.

However, in the mid-1980s Jackson was diagnosed with vitiligo, a skin disorder that causes loss of pigmentation in patches across the body.

Those close to him recall how deeply humiliating this was, leading him to cover up with long-sleeve shirts, hats, gloves, sunglasses, and masks.

When Jackson passed away in 2009, his autopsy – along with his medical records – definitively confirmed he had vitiligo.

But people back then didn’t know or didn’t care about vitiligo if you asked why Michael Jackson went from black to “white” (he was never white to me and I think he even said that in an interview he was light skin black people come in many different shades) was because he was ashamed of being black and like…this is why diversity is important to me because I know there was a black kid somewhere who looked up to him and that kid who probably didn’t know what vitiligo was thought Michael Jackson was ashamed to be black and on a positive note there was a kid who has vitiligo and saw how big he became and probably saw themselves in Michael like the way we talk about diversity is so important to me and every time I see “MiChAeL wAs AsHaMeD tO bE bLaCk” the inner Joe Jackson in me just
