Hi Class,
In preparation for our next book, The Complete Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi, let’s get acquainted with this nation:

I also recommend a longer history, such as the Wikipedia entry, which is quite long, for an encyclopedia article:

And here is a short interview with Satrapi in which she talks about ethics. We will continue to discuss ethics in the coming weeks.
Best,
Sean
