today in Black history - feb 28

Micheal Jackson made history by winning a record breaking 8 Grammy awards on February 28, 1984

I’m just going to assume that anyone reading this already knows something about the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, so I’ll skip the usual links to biographical information and documentaries. For this last day of Black History Month this year, let’s celebrate the creative genius and incomparable talent of Michael Jackson’s Thriller. If you want to learn more about that historic win, give this 30 year retrospective feature on the Grammy website a read.

Thank for reading, y’all. It’s been fun spending Black History Month with you this year. Black history is every day, so keep on reading, watching, and researching to learn more. Peace.
