S1x14 "Children"

Following a brief but enthusiastic review of amateur concert footage, episode 14 of Reading Michael Jackson explores one of the shortest pieces we have read from Dancing the Dream so far. "Children" is a short reflection of sorts that offers a more straightforward understanding of Michael's compassion for and admiration of children. With part of the piece reading almost identically to Michael's 1993 acceptance speech for the Grammy Legend Award, in this episode we will discuss the piece itself, the speech, as well as Michael's own childhood.
