In what ways did soul music and its performers affect the civil rights movement?
Soul music's performers sang songs about freeing the blacks and not discriminating against color. 

Civil rights leaders tended to admire James Brown much more than other great soul or Motown artists. What are some of the reasons for that.

James brown was "the father of funk" and his crazy dances and his past inspired his listeners.
