The central idea of “Soul” was once expressed by a woman in Montgomery dur ing the bus boycott: “My feei is tired, but rnv soul is rest ed.” The Negro spiritual gave church members the opportuni ty to feel spiritual soul. Then with the same abandon, danc ing performers demonstrated “soul” in stage appearances. Soon “soul” became indentifi ed with jive, jazz, and the blues. In the blues, the singer could pour out his soul with Hs whole being. After the initiation of the black power movement, and later the black student move ment, the Negro began to acquire a “Soul.” What is “Soul?” “Soul” is the black man, his pride, his morale and everything about him including dress, hair-do, arid cosmetics. Soul is the black man’s sass, profanity, walk, talk, and spiritual and racial concession and ' ; self-as-. - tion. Shrinking cowardice wins nothing from either mea ness or m'gnanlmity. Manly self assertion am: enter rial vigil ance are essential to Negro liberty, not less Ban to that of the white man.” G. . .Beautiful, also, is the sun./ Beautiful, also are t> • souls of my people.” H. . . .No one section of on: country was wholly responsible for its introduction, id lie sides, it was recognized and protected for years b. t; *? gen eral government.” * * * BONUS QUESTIONS: (Mach counts one point.) --A.
