Marji is affected by events in history because she was a young girl in Iran during their cultural revolution, so her education was changed drastically when Khomeini took control, as her French school was shut down due to anti-westernism and she was forced to wear a veil, which she didn't have to do before Khomeini. The fact that the author split the children in the middle shows the segregation and disunification of the people. The author uses graphic weight to give the frame a dark tone, because this is a dark time for Marji, her classmates, and the people of Iran.

The author shows use the truth of Marji traits through synesthesia showing us that she believes in herself that she was a true and last prophet regarding to her heavy personal beliefs with her religion. In the text Marji says, ”I really didn’t know what to think about the veil, deep down I was very religious but as a family we were very modern and avant garde.” This shows that even if her family isn’t necessarily religious or have any connection towards their faith she still wanted to be connected with it. In the panel her face is surround by a sun with lines striking out showing how as a prophet almost as if she was the peoples miracle.

We can see that Marji is experiencing an identity shift, switching from her deeply religious side to her more contemporary side. We see this in the panel with one side covered in the veil and religion-associated print, and on the other side she is unveiled with tools of innovation surrounding her. From this, we can clearly see her emotional state with a conflict of consciousness because of the veil.

The frame shows Marji holding a scale, giving a form of a peace sign, and holding a sword and shield. The narration says, "I wanted to be Justice, Love, and the Wrath Of God all in one." The narration shows how Marji wanted extreme control and the power of pure judgement. By highlighting herself using graphic weight and showing her figure representing these ideals with varying levels of sternness, it emphasizes her want for control. This was caused by the turmoil in Iran because her parents are radicals who had fought for the overthrowing of the Shah, which caused her to accept radical beliefs and trusting her God that she was a prophet.

Marji is affected by these events in history as that she is confused at a young age about why her parents were always protesting against the Shah since she believed that the Shah was chosen by God since during this time, there was a accumulation of changing events and the growing resentment and anger. The author uses the choice of vivid descriptions portrays the Royal Iranian army in the left picture as this corrupt, brutal force that crushes any opposition or resistance to the Shah and the Royal family/ Iranian gov't while portrays the Iranian citizenry as this brave, yet powerless and persecuted movement that is trying to change the Shah's clear brutality and corruption and to allow for more democratic reforms within Iran. The fact that these two contrasting pictures complement what life was under during the Shah and Iranian Government shows how brutal, repressive and oppressive the Shah was to since the citizenry wanted more democratic reforms and to limit his absolute powers.

In this panel Marji is just a young girl wanting to go with her parents to protest, not understanding how dangerous this action would be. She is affected by history because she knows there has to be a change and she wants to help create this change. However, she is a child and doesn't understand why her parents don't want her to protest when they only want her to be safe. The author uses camera angle to show how she is just a child. She appears very small compared to her parents and she is facing away from the camera so the focus is on her parents. The focus being on her parents is helpful to not make them look mean, showing how this choice is fair even if Marji doesn't think so.

Her facial expressions represent how scared she is and caught off guard each time she would hear a knock on the door because she doesn’t want her father to go to jail. The positioning of her head can represent that she quickly turned her head and is now scared, which can add more emotion to the story. Her mouth being closed can also mean that she is trying to stay quiet so the people knocking can think nobody is home to make sure her father doesn’t get caught.
