Past Run
Mr. Soul
In 1968, they asked him to produce the first "black Tonight Show." Instead, he started a revolution by bringing the real black experience to the national stage. Meet Ellis B. Haizlip, the man who changed the color and face of mainstream television; the man behind SOUL!--one of the most controversial, successful, and socially significant black-produced TV shows in US history.
“A rich and illuminating piece of cultural history.”
— Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter
