In the wake of the September 11 attacks, the music industry came together to support the victims and their families. One of the most significant events was the 'United We Stand: What More Can I Give' benefit concert, organized by Michael Jackson. The concert took place on October 21, 2001, at the Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium in Washington, D.C. Michael Jackson, who narrowly escaped death by oversleeping and missing a meeting at the World Trade Center on that fateful day, took a leading role in this initiative. The concert featured numerous artists and aimed to raise funds for those affected by the tragedy. Jackson's performance of his song 'What More Can I Give' served as the emotional finale of the event, encapsulating the spirit of unity and resilience in the face of adversity. This concert not only highlighted the power of music to bring people together but also underscored the importance of community support during times of crisis.
