• Cash: The Man Comes Around - Generation Kill Ending or HERE :
  Johnny Cash "partially sings and partially speaks the words, which contain numerous Biblical references, predominantly from the Book of Revelation.
  The song never names "the Man" who will come around, though an obvious inference would be the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. According to the song,
  when the Man comes around, there will be judgment for some and salvation for others. A series of images depict the horror and confusion of that judgment day."
  (YouTube)

  The Man Comes Around by Johnny Cash
  "There's a man going around taking names 
  And he decides who to free and who to blame
  Everybody won't be treated all the same
  There'll be a golden ladder reaching down
  When the Man comes around"

  "This lesson focuses on Billie Holiday's signature song, "Strange Fruit," a protest song Lewis Allen (Abel Meeropol) wrote in 1938 about the ongoing and intransigent problem of lynching in the American South... Working in small teams, students analyze a variety of primary source materials related to lynching (news articles, letters written to or written by prominent Americans, pamphlets, broadsides, etc.) in order to assess the effectiveness of the anti-lynching campaign spearheaded by African-Americans."

  "Before a condemned man is executed he is customarily offered one last meal of his own choice. It's debatable if this is an act of kindness or simply a cruel joke, but the final choice that some prisoners make offers an intriguing insight into the minds of these men and the lives they lived. The Texas Department of Corrections carefully logs the last meals of their captors and I offer a few of these choices, along with the men themselves, for your consumption."
