In this thesis, I analyze some of Michael Jackson’ songs which concern to the negatively social and racial problem. Social problem that happened to the society in this world, then racial problem that happened to the Black people, such as: Skin Color, Prejudice, Discrimination, Stereotypes, and Racial Segregation. In his songs entitled Heal The World, We Are The World, and The Man In The Mirror have the meaning of to make a better world. Other songs entitled Black or White, and They Don’t Care About Us have the meaning of Discrimination. I use the descriptive qualitative method because it provides an overview of analysis result published in a related analysis of research result in data collection using the library method. In writing this thesis, I hope this analysis can provide knowledge to the reader of poetry, especially the significant social problem and discrimination based on songs written by Michael Jackson.
