This terrorist attack is very similar to the 16th Street Baptist Church Bombing in Birmingham, Alabama.
Some similarities are the fact that these were both protests made against the original movements. The Cinema burning was against the people who were protesting the Shah and the bombing was against people fighting for civil rights. Also both of these events had the same goal: to scare people from protesting.

On September 15, 1963 there was a bombing during a Sunday morning church service in Birmingham, Alabama. This bombing killed 4 people and injured 22 others. The two men convicted of the bombing were both white supremacists who used this bombing as a way to scare people who support the Civil Rights Movement.

There are two main differences between the Cinema burning and the Church bombing. One is that the reaction from the police were way different, In Persepolis she says that the police would not let anybody inside to help rescue the victims. But this is unlike the Bombing because the Police had to help retrieve victims that were inside of the church and there were people on the streets who were helping rescue victims. Secondly there was a difference in the amount of fatalities, in the Cinema burning there were hundreds of people killed while in this Church Bombing there were only 4. But this difference in the amount of fatalities will not change the response and effects it had on the community and the two movements.

A similarity from Black Friday  compared to Bloody Sunday and the March on Washington is the significance of the aftermath from these events. In Black Friday's case this event was in the downward leadership by the Shah while these two other events were the catalysts to other events. For Bloody Sunday, the protest led to the passing of the Voting Rights Acts. And for the March on Washington, this protest was the final act in the Civil Rights Movement at The Civil Rights Act would be passed just months after.
