Posted April 21, 200619 yr Dear all, after reading a previous thread (https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=27859) I wonder what the meaning of the black fist in Northern Soul actually is - or was. Should it be a reminiscence at the black fist of the Black Power movement (as seen during the Olympic Summer games 1968 in Mexico)? Or is there a different background? And by the way: does someone know what the origin of the "Mod Target" is? Take care YouYou Edited April 21, 200619 yr by YouYou
April 25, 200619 yr I say, yes bomb the wrong events; shoot the wrong DJ's. Lets have a little more politics in soul music. I think we should then invade every other country and call ourselves The Soul Nazi's. Time for a cup of tea............ I think the correct term is actually "Hang The DJ"

DT, in another pathetic attempt at getting my numbers up, I've latched onto another of your posts! Anyhoo, you're my kind of poster, let it all kick off, a load of lower middle class brits posturing about clenched fists, black panthers, angela davis, tuskegee 626 et al, a yank turns up, embarrases everybody by getting us to realise that, at the time we thought we were being cool and together and awfully hip, when in fact it turns out we were being a bit twatty. Still, we all know better now ......... don't we? Chipped cup ...... two sugars!
