This Notice originally appeared in the September 1968 NET Program Guide, announcing the show:
On Thursday, September 12, at 9:00 PM, Channel 13 presents the first in a series of 39 one-hour programs entitled Soul!, devoted entirely to and aimed at the metropolitan area’s black community.
The format of Soul! resembles some of the popular late night programs – segmented, lively, informative and entertaining.
Appearing on the show will be top stars and up-and-coming young talents from the black community. There will also be pertinent features dealing with all aspects of the social, cultural and artistic life of the black population.
Just found out this project is happening, so go have a look. Six episodes are up now and more may follow.
