...Jackson was at his professional peak, and The Cosby Show was just about to debut, giving the country and, eventually, the world, the first true lesson in what it means to be black and middle class. At my party, in my grandmother's New Orleans backyard, MJ's then mocha-toned face was everywhere: on the balloons, the napkins, the paper plates. Even the cake was shaped like MJ's head, with black jheri curls. Some of the best gifts I received were leather jackets - one black, the other red - splattered with shiny, silver buttons and zippers.
