Some of the people like marji's family stay behind because they want change to happen and they do not run away because they are scared.

In the short story Persepolis it's talking about how their is a war going on and some are revolting and others not. Marjane the main character wants to fight back even despise her age, she's still learning about life and is confused. That doesn't stop her from fighting back and showing bravery. The next short poem "If we Must Die" shows unprivileged people who are getting beaten up or tortured by the opposing side. Even through all of this these men decide to revolt and fight back even if it means they will get hurt. These two story's show different sides of the war but have the same common ground, to be brave, have honor, and a war going on. ]]> 2020-11-03 14:39:19 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886388914 Nathanael Park https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886392383 She is trying to understand what justice is.

I say this because in chapter 9, 'the sheep', it shows that marji and her family have stayed and wants to see and make a change. while their family and friends have all left to the U.S. this tells me that marj and her family were brave and courageous to stay and fight back to see change. In the poem 'if we must die', shows that oppressed people are getting arrested and getting hurt. But the people who are getting hurt wants to stand up and fight back to die honorably. this shows that it is better to die fighting honourably then just letting it happen. ]]> 2020-11-03 15:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886477704 Reilly Calvert https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886488017 The two stories connect to themes of being brave and sacrificial in the face of battle. In “The Sheep”, the people who flee the country during this time of danger are seen as cowardly for not sticking with and fighting for their cause. Other people like Marji’s parents remain in their country to see this conflict through and fight it out. In “If We Must Die”, it is expressed that the fight for a cause will be long and hard but if you remain steadfast and brave your efforts will pay off, and it’s better to die fighting than abandon your cause and die a coward. Both show how some people will flee to avoid death and others will know to keep fighting, because if they die at least they will go down honorably.]]> 2020-11-03 15:05:54 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886488017 LIAM https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886501742 she is trying to figure out why people do things like torture and to figure out everyone's political views. she is trying t figure out her own beliefs as well as the others. ]]> 2020-11-03 15:09:28 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886501742 Adie adelhigg4947 https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886510163 Claude McKay's poem connects to the themes we see in chapter 9 by showing how you have to be courageous. In chapter 9, it is deemed cowardly that you should try to escape during times of war. There are some people like Marji's father who is afraid to leave but also wants to keep his family safe. A lot of the people that stay behind want the country to change so they are there in support of this movement.  ]]> 2020-11-03 15:11:35 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886510163 LIAM https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886518720 The middle east will never have peace as long as the middle east has oil.]]> 2020-11-03 15:13:52 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886518720 Garrett https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886593487 I think that she is trying to understand why all of the different people can not just agree on one solution that could fix all of the problems or a t least find something that would calm all of the people down. She does not understand how the world works yet. She has yet to figure out that people do not always agree on everything or at least do not always come to a middle ground. I think she is trying to understand how the world works,and the more people she speaks to, the larger range of different answers she is going to receive. This is only going to confuse her more and make her want to know more about this jumble of mess they call politics.]]> 2020-11-03 15:32:35 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886593487 Caiden https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886594662 They both connect by the themes of bravery and courageous. they were both taught on how not to run from battle to stay and fight no matter the circumstances. As stateed in chapter 9. In the poem it is talking about sticking up for what is right and that we cant just run and let them continue to treat us like this so he is trying to get the readers to understand that running is not going to accomlish anything but staying and fighting for what is right will help. ]]> 2020-11-03 15:32:54 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886594662 Nathanael Park https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886601680 In Chapter 9 people are starting to leave Iran. The revolutionaries are being sent to prison and executed. There is evidence of this on page 26 panel 7 and page 29 panel 2. One of the themes is that there is danger and corruption in their country. This connects to the poem 'If We Must Die' because the poem talks about corruption. The last 2 lines talk about there being a murderous cowardly pack attacking them.]]> 2020-11-03 15:34:44 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886601680 Garrett https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886607661 According to her dad, the middle east will never have peace because of the large sum's of oil.

In chapter 9 people were killed and imprisoned but they never gave up on their mission and in the poem they are trying to fight for equality against a way bigger force but they never give up. In the poem it says "Though far outnumbered let us show us brave," shows that they are heavily outnumbered but that will not stop them and in the sheep they are fighting against a whole country and with only an army of missionaries. Anoosh says "everything will be alright" which shows us that no matter what happens they will keep trying. In conclusion they are both fighting for freedom and are up against a bigger rival but they both wont stop till they get what they want which supports both their themes of no matter what circumstances you should never give up. ]]> 2020-11-03 15:45:24 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886643105 Brian https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886643600 In chapter 9 "The Sheep" and the poem "If We Must Die"  there is a connection between the theme, "Even if outnumbered and against an unbeatable force fight honorably and never give up"  In chapter 9 all of the people against the former government that was in power were either murdered or executed, "Its Moshen he has been found drowned in his bathtub" but Marji and her family have not given up on their cause. In the poem the speaker says "Though far outnumbered let us show us brave". This means that even though he knows they are outnumbered and will probably die in he process they wont give up and will be brave and honorable. Both the quote from the chapter, that shows the force (the government) killing the people against it but those still alive never give up and the quote from the poem that shows that whilst outnumbered they still fight honorably and bravely connect to the main theme of both of the passages.]]> 2020-11-03 15:45:31 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886643600 Kenneth G. https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886735386 According to Marji's dad, the Middle East will never have peace as long as foreign powers try to take control of Iran's oil.

In 'If We Must Die' the author writes about how you must not go out without a fight so you could at least die an honorable death. In chapter 9 the author writes about how Marji and her family see all these people dying that were trying to fight for a greater cause.

For example, on the top of page 5, the teacher tells them to rip the picture of the Shah out of their books. Marji is confused because their teacher had told them that the Shah was chosen by God, and now she is telling them to rip the picture out of the book. Another example, in the middle strip on page 5, is when she hears people making up stories about things they did during the war. Her neighbors start saying that a mark that the wife has had for a while is actually a scar from a bullet. Marji doesn't understand why they are doing this.

For example, in the poem 'If we Must Die,' line 7-8 says "In vain; then even the monsters we defy Shall be constrained to honor us though dead!" this quote shows that even if they lost they wanted to lose with grace so that their enemies would have to respect them. In Persepolis page 30 frame 4 Anoosh has been imprisoned, while he is obviously upset he was imprisoned he is trying to inspire Marji and encourage her to seek change. Both the poem and Persepolis help show the determination people had to create change in their community. ]]> 2020-11-03 16:42:02 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886877490 Aidan Cluskey https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886880745 According to Marji's dad the middle east will never have peace if there is oil because other countries want to control the middle east for the oil. ]]> 2020-11-03 16:42:46 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886880745 Emma Pendleton https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886888869 The middle east will never achieve total peace because all the surrounding countries want oil and will do anything to get it. ]]> 2020-11-03 16:44:39 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886888869 kerry mabe https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886901991 Marji is trying to understand why everyone is changing their opinion on shah. ]]> 2020-11-03 16:47:42 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886901991 kerry mabe https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886908019 according to Marjis dad the middle east will never have peace because other countries just want resources and will do anything to have them. ]]> 2020-11-03 16:49:05 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886908019 Levi levistra2526 https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/886959611 The themes of 'If We Must Die' and in Chapter 9 'The Sheep' are connected because the people are relentless. In 'If We Must Die', the author states, "Though far outnumbered let us show brave...Like men we'll face the murderers." In Chapter 9, the author writes, "When they found his body, only his head was underwater." Marji's family didn't leave like most other families did.

One quote that evidently compare the two stories is first from 'The Sheep' starting with "The Proletariat shall rule! Its's Inevitable!!! That's just what Lenin explained in "The State and the Revolution". This means that Uncle Anoosh believes to fight for the majority of the Republic for the beliefs of Lenin. This ties directly to McKay's 'If We Must Die' quote of "Though far outnumbered let us show us brave, and for their thousand blows deal one death-blow!

In 'The Sheep,' Marji listens to her father and Anoosh talk about the revolutions. Marji's dad is angry that the government is lying to them, but Anoosh thinks that it is fine and will all work out. despite all the pressure to do otherwise, Marji's dad decides to keep their family in Iran and continue fighting when he can. In the poem, the speaker states that eve if they are killed, as long as they are fighting, then even their enemies will have to honor them. In conclusion, the poem 'If We Must Die' and chapter 9 'The Sheep' are connected because they show that the people do not want to go down without a fight.]]> 2020-11-03 17:16:11 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887026328 Mason Ritter masoritt0074 https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887091546 The Middle East will never have peace because they have oil and the surrounding countries will go to any length to get it.]]> 2020-11-03 17:31:55 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887091546 Mason Ritter masoritt0074 https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887097861 Marjane is trying to understand why people changed their opinions on the Shah so quickly, how they went from loving him to hating him in an instant.]]> 2020-11-03 17:33:27 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887097861 Aidan Cluskey https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887113720 Claude McKay's poem connects to the themes we see in chapter 9 by explaining that you must fight in something you believe in even if you are outnumbered and it does not look like you will come out the victor. This is shown in the poem when it says "Like men we'll face the murderous, cowardly pack,
Pressed to the wall, dying, but fighting back!" This quote helps illustrate the theme to fight back. Also in chapter nine this theme is shown in the book when it says "But you'll see! One day the proletariat will rule!"

Neither party is willing to go down with out a fight or honorable victory. In the poem, the speaker describes a scenario demanding justice, "If we must die, O let us nobly die,So that our precious blood may not be shed In vain; then even the monsters we defy." In the same way chapter 9 introduces a new character that fled from Iran in order to protect himself and others from authorities that sought him. He later was captured and taken to prison, although he endured many years in prison he still came out on the other side fighting. In both instances these two parties were not going to bow down to their enemies, instead they were prepared to do whatever it took fight nobly and without reproach. ]]> 2020-11-03 17:59:47 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887204035 Gabby Baber gabrbabe3288 https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887209389 According to Marji's dad the Middle East will never have peace because they have resources like oil and other countries will go to any lengths including violence to get the resources.]]> 2020-11-03 18:01:08 UTC https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887209389 Gabby Baber gabrbabe3288 https://padlet.com/remartin/qgpluco9zccb/wish/887219071 Chapter 9 'The Sheep' and 'If We Must Die' connect to the theme of people won't go down without a fight when it involves what they believe in. In the poem the author writes, "Like men we'll face the murderous, cowardly pack,
Pressed to the wall, dying, but fighting back!" This shows how they weren't going down without a fight. In Chapter 9 the author says,  "When they found his body, only his head was underwater." This shows how the guy went down with a fight. In summary, both of the quotes show how people weren't going down without a fight.

In lines 13 and 14 the author states "Like men we'll face the murderous, cowardly pack,
Pressed to the wall, dying, but fighting back!" The quote from the poem connects to chapter 9 of the novel by giving a common theme that you must fight back and be brave for what you believe in.

This indicates that they would continue to fight no matter the cost and if they were to die, they would die with bravery and honor.

For example, she talks about how people who supported the government dressed and behaved, versus how people who didn't dressed and behaved.

The family has faith in their country, identifying as proud citizens of Iran. Marji and her mother are also embracing their identity as strong women who will defend their rights. Marji is beginning to shape an identity for herself as she grows older and more aware, taking part in demonstrations and using the world around her to shape her set of beliefs. The government is becoming more controlling and oppressive against the people in Iran, restricting how people can express their individual identity, and people like Marji and her family are trying to fight against that.
