Don Cornelius: Visionary, Trailblazer, Cultural Icon (Pt. 2)

[@joehodges8459]

Oh my goodness. When I was a kid back in the '70's me and my brothers and sister could not wait to see Soooooooooul Train every saturday. We had so much fun dancing to the music, and seeing all the different groups. Our favorite was The Jackson 5ive. Their dancing was so exciting and sharp. I thought Don had the deepest voice. And the Soul Train dancers was outstanding as well. I felt such a sense of pride to see kids who looked like me on TV. I will always cherish those moments as a part of my childhood. A magical time it truly was.

It was one of the most wonderful thing for African Americans during that era.
