The most important symbol in this chapter is the DHS logo on the opening screen on Marcus's SchoolBook. That is symbolic of the government's invasion on everyday life. Another symbol is the book "Up Against The Wall Motherf___er" that Ange is reading. It represents the power of protest and the driving force behind it which is a big theme in this novel.

Marcus', as well as Ange's, use of certain words, such as: awesome, gross, cool, and edgy, expressed his adolescence and showed that although he has proved to be very intelligent, he, in many ways, continued to keep a youthful exuberance throughout the entirety of the novel, as shown in his incessant urge to fight and  his hunger for justice. Also, Marcus often described minor characters in depth, which goes to show he is observant.
Trudy Doo used shouting and profanity to show her rebel attitude.

On page 183 Marcus said, "I felt a little premonition of nervousness though." This quote is important because it foreshadows the events at the concert later in the chapter. Ange stated on page 185, "The idea is to put a lot of civilians in a position where the cops have to decide, are we going to treat these ordinary people like terrorists?" This is significant because, in the end, the police decided to torture the crowds. During the concert, Trudy Doo and the audience chanted, "Don't trust anyone over 25!" on page 191 and later Trudy Doo said on page 192, "You're young enough and stupid enough not to know that you can't possibly win, so you're the only ones who can lead us to victory. Take it back!" Finally, at the very end of the chapter on page 198, Marcus overhears two men in business suits having a conversation. One of the men told the other, " It's like they're brainwashed or something." This is important to the story because it demonstrates the oblivious nature of many American adults and citizens.

At the beginning of chapter twelve, Marcus, in Ms. Galvez's social studies class, debated the freedoms of American citizens with Charles Walker and defined liberty as was written in the Declaration of Independence by the founding fathers. Then, Marcus and Ange went on their first date together, getting burritos and later going to an illegal concert. Next, Marcus and Ange briefly left the event and ran to the church to share their first kiss together. Soon after that, however, they were interrupted by the sound of sirens. Police had invaded the concert and gassed protesters attending the concert with pepper spray. Marcus and Ange escaped safely and went home. After the concert ordeal, Marcus returned to school only to find his favorite teacher replaced with his principal, who detested Marcus.
