He'll Be There--in Africa
Friday May 29, 2009
Those Jackson guys sure love theme parks. In addition to other curious events at his manse, Michael Jackson operated his (now defunct) Neverland Ranch park. Now comes word that brother Marlon is trying to develop a theme park in Nigeria that would tell the story of American slavery and its African origins. According to Tourism Review.com, the $3.4-billion project would include a slave ship model, a memorial, and a tribute to the Jackson 5, as well as a golf course, casinos, and a five-star hotel.
