The Soul of Nigger Charley is a 1973 American blaxploitation Western film directed by Larry Spangler and starring Fred Williamson. It is the sequel to 1972's The Legend of Nigger Charley.[1] Lou Rawls provided two songs for the soundtrack, Sometime Day and Morning Comes Around. For years, only a bootleg copy of poor quality was available until it was released in Blu-ray in early 2025.

Plot

The Soul of Nigger Charley continues the story of escaped slave Charley and fellow ex-slave Toby. This time, the two friends help a group of ex-slaves earn freedom as they combat a ruthless ex-Civil War officer who wants to keep slavery alive by selling blacks to Southern plantation owners in Mexico.
