The Color of Water: Soundtrack

I love music a lot and 'The Color of Water', has so much in it that can be put to music. I am doing this by chapters and am only doing a few random ones.

Chapter 1: Dead


















*Warning: This song contains the D word.
I picked this song because it is talking about someone trying to find where they belong and going with random people to find it.
Chapter 2: The Bicycle

Chapter 3: Kosher

















This chapter talks about Ruth's family so that's why I picked it.

Chapter 4: Black Power

This chapter is about Ruth trying to teach the kids that color and race isn't important so that's why I picked this song.


Chapter 6: The New Testament

I chose this song because this chapter is about Ruth's faith and church.
Chapter 7: Sam

Sam is Ruth's brother so here's a song about brothers
Chapter 8: Brothers and Sisters

This song is about having too much food but since James' family didn't have enough I figured this song could be good irony.



Chapter 13: New York

This song is about being a part of New York so it fits the chapter.


I hope you enjoy! :)

Why was 'The Color of Water' written?

I think that 'The Color of Water' was written so that people would understand James McBride's life and his mother and how even though through all these struggles she faced in life she was still a successful woman who went on with her life though she had these issues.

                           
                                 It is a very emotional and touching story and it's great!
