The Man, oh, you don't know the Man. He's everywhere. In the White House... down the hall... Ms. Mullins, she's the Man. And the Man ruined the ozone, he's burning down the Amazon, and he kidnapped Shamu and put her in a chlorine tank! And there used to be a way to stick it to the Man. It was called rock 'n roll, but guess what, oh no, the Man ruined that, too, with a little thing called MTV!

The man is the system of social and economic repression imposed upon minorities and the poor. -The aim of this repression being to maintain the status-quo in order to preserve current power and wealth relations. Sometimes described as “The White Man” because the people who control the government and the corporations are rich white males.
