"Dia [Michael Jackson] bersukacita karena masih hidup. Ada kegembiraan yang kamu rasakan tentang dia di atas panggung dan membuat kita tidak hanya merasa baik tetapi mendorong kita melawan diri kita sendiri dengan "Manusia di Cermin," melihat diri kita secara kritis, "Hitam atau Putih," apa artinya tertangkap dalam warna yang bertentangan dengan sejarah dan budaya yang kaya?"

--- Cornel West

Versi Bahasa Inggris

He[Michael Jackson] had a joy in being alive. There was a joy you felt of him on the stage and making us not just feel good but pushing us against ourselves with the "Man in the Mirror," looking at ourselves critically, "Black or White," what does it mean to get caught in a color as opposed to a rich history and culture?
