Satrapi vs. Moraga

Satrapi's relationship with her family and her nation is a strong relationship because she has much Iranian pride and she has a deep loving relationship with her parents. Even though she hasn't lived in Iran for sometime, all of her work is focused around telling stories about her life in Iran, or her work is dedicated to those who lost their lives during that turbulent time period in Iran. Moraga on the other hand really resents the fact that she is ostracized my her community, but at the same time she ostracizes herself. She is a lesbian feminist in a traditional and male oriented culture. She does write about her family and her community, but in a negative and patronizing way; and Satrapi does not write this way.
