That white glove.

A fool would underestimate the iconic power of that white glove.

In the villages of Africa, in the endless frozen horizon of the Arctic, everyone knows that white glove? Why?

For reasons we can never understand, but also because there’s only one.

The other white glove is missing.

But the absence has turned the bereft and heartbroken glove that remains into a glittering piece of defiant joy.

It’s the national flag of Michael Jackson.
