How do Marjane and Othello handle societal pressures?

Marjane from "Persepolis" and Othello from William Shakespeare's play "Othello" both face immense societal pressures, albeit in different contexts. Marjane, a young girl living in Iran during a time of political turmoil, navigates the expectations placed on her as a woman in a restrictive society while also grappling with her desire for individuality and freedom. Othello, a Moor in Venice, faces racism and prejudice from those around him, particularly in his relationship with Desdemona. While Marjane rebels against societal norms and expectations, Othello ultimately succumbs to the pressures imposed on him, leading to tragic consequences.
