On April 1, 1984, soul music legend Marvin Gaye was shot dead by his father after he intervened in an argument between his parents over misplaced business documents. Gretchen Whitmer has declared Jan. 20 as “What’s Going On Day” in the state, marking the 50th anniversary of Marvin Gaye’s Motown classic. The Motown Museum says it will use this commemorative date to kick off several moments in 2021 celebrating the half-century anniversary of the release of Gaye’s impactful What’s Going On album. Motown Museum Chairwoman and CEO Robin Terry made the announcement. For more information on Motown Museum, visit http://www.motownmuseum.org.
