Jack Johnson, the world's first black Heavyweight Boxing Champion, was the first person to be prosecuted under the act. In fact, Geoffrey C Ward writes in his book 'Unforgivable Blackness' that the potential to smear Johnson had been one of the primary motivating factors behind the introduction of the law.
Jack Johnson，世界第一位黑人重量级拳王，是首位被依据曼恩法案指控的人。事实上，Geoffrey C Ward在他的著作'Unforgivable Blackness'（《不可饶恕的黑色》）中写道，污蔑和陷害Johnson正是曼恩法案被引入美国法律体系的幕后动因。

Johnson was viewed by the press and the establishment as a black man who didn't know his place. Not only was Johnson a black world champion more than 50 years before segregation was lifted, but he flaunted his success in a society which demanded that he be humble. He wore expensive clothes and jewellery and invested his money in a fleet of luxurious automobiles, a hobby for which he was repeatedly punished by white policemen who issued him with undeserved speeding tickets.
Johnson被媒体和权威部门视作一个不知天高地厚的黑鬼。他不仅在废除种族隔离制度的50年前就成为了世界冠军，而且还在美国社会要求他保持低调的时候，厚颜无耻地炫耀自己的成功。他穿着昂贵的服装，佩戴奢侈的珠宝，并且成批地购买豪华跑车，而这个爱好就使他屡次被白人警察拦下，并课以莫须有的罚金和告票。

But what riled the establishment more than anything was that Johnson consorted with white women. Johnson was often accompanied on his travels by prostitutes, but so were the majority of his white contemporaries.
然而，比这些更加惹恼权威当局的，是Johnson与白人女性的交往。Johnson外出旅行时，身边常有应召女郎陪伴，但这种事在同时代的白人中是屡见不鲜的。

In 1913 Johnson was prosecuted under the Mann Act for 'transporting a female across the state line for immoral purposes'. None of his white contemporaries who also travelled with prostitutes were arrested or charged with similar crimes.
1913年，Johnson被依据曼恩法案起诉，罪名是“基于非道德动机跨州贩运妇女”。而和他一样与应召女郎一同旅行的白人则没有一个曾因类似罪名遭到过起诉。

Johnson's alleged victims had travelled with him willingly and admitted it under oath. Moreover, the trips in question had taken place long before the Mann Act was even introduced. However, an all white jury convicted him regardless.
尽管Johnson的所谓“受害人”全部宣誓作证说她们都是自愿和他一同旅行的，而且更离谱的是，这次旅行发生的时间根本就早在曼恩法案生效之前！但即便如此，全部由白人组成的该案陪审团仍然无视这些而裁定Johnson有罪。

Years later the Mann Act was also used to sabotage the career of black musician Chuck Berry.
几年后，曼恩法案又被用来摧毁一位黑人音乐家——Chuck Berry。（记得MJ在某次颁奖演说中提到过Chuck Berry，当时的MJ话中明显带着强烈的情绪，一定是想起了后面要提及的不公正事件。）

In 1959 Berry met a 14 year old waitress in El Paso and asked her to work as a hat-check girl in his restaurant. The girl agreed and he drove her from El Paso to St Louis on his way back from a concert.
1959年，Berry在El Paso遇到一名14岁的女招待，并邀请她到他的餐厅担任衣帽间女侍应的工作。这个女孩同意了，由于Berry当时恰好是在参加完一场音乐会回圣路易斯的路途当中，因此就顺路让她搭车从El Paso开往圣路易斯。

On this flimsy premise Berry was arrested for 'transporting an underage girl for immoral purposes'. He was convicted under the Mann Act and sentenced to three years in prison.
然而，就因为这样一个毫无根据的猜测和假设，Berry被逮捕，罪名同样是“基于非道德动机跨州贩运妇女”。他被引用曼恩法案判决有罪，并服刑3年。

In the same year Berry's white copycat Elvis Presley began openly dating Priscilla Beaulieu, a 14 year old girl. Furthermore, Scotty Moore's biography of Presley asserts that prior to his involvement with Beaulieu, the star had been dating an even younger girl.
同年，Berry的白人模仿者Elvis Presley则开始与Priscilla Beaulieu，一名14岁女孩（未成年！就是猫女他妈）公开约会。更有甚者，Scotty Moore还曾在其所著猫王传记中断言，在Priscilla之前，猫王还曾经与另一位更加年幼的女孩约会过。（TMD，这不算娈童吗？！什么世道这是！）

米國，真的種族歧視很嚴重，無恥！

Ergo, in 1913 the Mann Act was used to convict a black boxer whose only 'crime' was to indulge in the same behaviour as his white conemporaries. Later, In 1959, the Mann Act was used to prosecute a black musician for giving a job to an underage girl, while his white contemporary repeatedly slept with underage girls and went unpunished.
事情就是这样：1913年，曼恩法案被用来对一位“罪名”仅仅是做了其他白人都做的事情的黑人拳击手定罪；而1959年，曼恩法案又一次被用来指控一名黑人音乐家，“罪名”是为一名未成年女子提供工作，而他的白人同龄人则可以和未成年少女睡觉而逍遥法外。

The Mann Act is an inherently racist law. Whilst it has not been used solely to prosecute African-Americans, the potential imprisonment of Jack Johnson was a primary motivating factor behind its introduction and since then it has been repeatedly used to convict black men of crimes that they didn't commit.
曼恩法案就是一部彻头彻尾的种族主义法案。虽然此法案在字面上并非专门针对非裔美国人，但陷Jack Johnson于冤狱正是该法案被引入美国法律体系的主因，而自此以后，该法案则被反复用于针对黑人的莫须有的污蔑和构陷上。

That Jackson was also targeted under the Mann Act is certainly intriguing and only strengthens the argument that he was targeted by a malicious prosecution on account of his race. In a way, it shows that little has changed since the days of Jack Johnson. The United States Attorney's decision not to prosecute Jackson under the Mann Act could be seen as a sign of progress, but the LAPD's decision to pursue Jackson in the first place - given the sheer abundance of evidence suggesting his innocence - remains disturbing.
这样一来，杰克逊也同样成为曼恩法案指控的目标就变得非常耐人寻味了。同时，这也进一步证明了一个论点，即杰克逊当年被恶意检控与他所属的种族是密切相关的。某种程度上，这说明，相比Jack Johnson的时代，世界几乎没有任何改变。对于联邦检察署最终决定不依据曼恩法案起诉杰克逊，我们或许可以将之看作一种进步，但是，即便在已有完全充足的证据证明杰克逊清白的前提下，洛杉矶警局仍然在第一时间决定追查杰克逊的做法，依然令人感到烦扰和不安。（让我感到恶心！ ）

That Jackson wasn't railroaded once he entered the courtroom is another indicator of progress. Of course, that the 2003 allegations against Jackson even made it into a courtroom was proof in itself that Jackson was given a bum rap - the allegations were nonsensical and his accusers were proven con artists - but while Johnson was found guilty of crimes that he patently did not commit, Jackson's jury at least made the right decision.
当杰克逊走上法庭时，他并没有重蹈前人的覆辙，这算是另一个进步的迹象。当然，2003年针对杰克逊的指控竟然能够闹到开庭审理的地步，这本身也证明杰克逊遭到的是不公正的待遇——这些指控是荒谬的，而控方也被证明是说谎的表演者——不过杰克逊案的陪审团至少作出了正确的裁决，而没有象Jack Johnson案件陪审团那样加之以莫须有的罪名。

In Jackson's case it was only the media which tarred him as guilty.
在杰克逊案中，唯一陷害和抹黑他的，就是——媒体。

1958-2009

比这些更加惹恼权威当局的，是Johnson与白人女性的交往。
-------------------------------------------------------------
這個是很重要的，MJ也曾說到，只是很多人都不在意，聽不出MJ的意思，
MJ曾說那些嫉妒他的人，就是因為很多白人女生都很愛他，
但很多人只覺得MJ太自戀了，從來不把他這句話當真，包括媒體和很多FANS！
如果當時黑人媒體能聰明一點，聽出MJ所指的意思，
就能聽出MJ話裏背後求救的意含，幫助MJ，
幫助他們黑人免於受這種族歧視的法律所害，而不是跟著白人媒體團團轉！

很多白人媒體都愛用MJ很喜歡金髮白人來給他按上他只喜歡白人女人的印象，
很多FANS也跟風，跟著那些白人媒體這樣看MJ，
卻忽視MJ第一個喜歡的人是黛安娜羅斯，是個黑人，
雖然２P的媽媽是白人，但也別忘了毯子的媽媽是拉丁人，
看事不能只單看一點，而是全面，MJ從未只偏重一點！
就連最後的彩排他選個女吉他手，也有人說他就是喜歡白人，
但你仔細看，跳舞的已經有黑女孩、伴唱的也有黑女孩，
連和他合唱的還是個亞裔混血，只加了一個吉他是白人女人，
就成了MJ喜歡白人女人，這樣的邏輯和以前白人媒體愛高調炒MJ愛白人女人有何差別？
圍繞在MJ身邊的明明充滿了各色的女孩，某些人卻永遠只挑裏面的白人女孩出來，
把其他的各色女孩全當成了透明人，只為了形塑MJ喜歡白人的刻板印象，
卻從未想過，以MJ的世界觀任何膚色到他面前都變成了一樣，
他喜歡的只是因為他喜歡這個人的特質，是那個女孩散發了他喜歡的特質，那個人是他想要的！
真的想了解MJ就忘掉那些固有的刻板印象，打破那些白人媒體筆下的偏見，
忘掉以前那些你從白人媒體為MJ寫的人物分析，“重新認識MJ“！

雖然對歐巴馬感覺麻麻，但看到美國能有這樣的新聞，
真的，歐巴馬能當上美國總統真的太好了，這是一種質變的開始，
對MJ後來的歷史定位也會有很大幫助的！

开水浇花

种族主义的畜生。

天使回家了

恶心的小人～
这不单止是屎奈顿的个人行为，背后如果没有默认与支持，他一个人能成戏吗？
美国，悲哀呀！

郁闷，看到猫王那一段更郁闷，偶不是带有情绪，可是就事论事，和未成年少女在一起这是显而易见的违法，他能被奉为英雄，而迈迈，循规蹈矩却。。。。。。。大清早的，郁闷。。。。。。。

想你...

与LS的同感，种族歧视真的太可怕了，迈迈是最让人心疼的受害者，我忍不住诅咒那些心怀恶意伤害迈迈的人们！
