Music for "To Kill A Movkingbird"

Arthur "Boo" Radley is a mysterious character who does not physically show himself to the readers until the book was close to ending. He always stayed in the Radley Place, his home, but no one ever really knew why. Then Jem Finch had a thought and he told Jean Louise Fintch about it. "I think I'm beginning to understand why Boo Radley's stayed shut up in the house all this time .... it's because he wants to stay inside." (Lee 277) He is saying this after he finds out about the prejudice against blacks that is so embedded into society that it shows in the courts of justice. A good song to play at this time would be "Waiting on the World to Change" by John Mayer. The first eight lines definitely apply to Boo Radley. Boo is misunderstood, does not like the world as it is now, could not stand up to the masses, and he probably thinks that the leaders of society are all unfair to the black community.
Another song I can connect to the book is "Man of Constant Sorrow" by Norman Blake. This is a song the Soggy Bottom Boys sing in a movie, loosely based on the "Odyssey," that tells the story of three escaped-convicts in Depression-Era Mississippi: "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou." This song applies to Tom Robinson because he is suffering constant sorrow after being accused of rape. He was taken away from his home and family, and Tom is under the continual risk of dieing prematurely. Tom Robinson is truly a man of constant sorrow, but ...
"Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
My face you'll never see no more.
But there is one promise that is given
I'll meet you on God's golden shore." (Man of Constant Sorrow)
