'American Soul': 'Soul Train' creator Don Cornelius' life will be chronicled in new BET series

The 10-episode series will take us through two decades and explore Don Cornelius' personal life story and the making of the revolutionary TV show 'Soul Train'
PUBLISHED FEB 3, 2019

Are you ready to be struck with nostalgia as "Souuuuuuul Traaaaaaaaaiin" comes on TV again? However, this time, it's not the music-dance television program that will get you to rise from your chair and do the 'Soul Train' dance. In fact, it will be all about Soul Train's first host and executive producer, Don Cornelius.

Chronicling the life and rise of Cornelius, the show will give us an insight into understanding the man who gave America one of the most radical and entertaining TV shows of all time. In the 1970s, when the economy was suffering, Hollywood was not as inclusive and the effects of the Civil Rights movement was on the surface, Cornelius took upon himself the task of building a platform for the African-American community to promote their culture.
