Her family opposed the regime of the Shah because, before Anoosh in 1925, her grandfather was kicked out of the top government position which came about them becoming communists and supporting the initial revolution. This was a stepping stone for Uncle Anoosh.

Uncle Anoosh was an inspirational figure for Marjane because he had revolted against the ordeals of Shah, went to jail and had many stories to tell, which was her vision of a hero. He helped her embody hope strength and passion. After his death, she grieves but is still encouraged to participate actively in the revolution.
