The texts “I Escaped A Violent Gang” and “Making Sarah Cry” have similar themes of courage. Each text shows the theme differently throughout the text.

At the end of the text, the author has to show more courage after she left the gang. “After I testified, I left the gang. I got death threats. But nobody came after me.” I think the beginning of the memoir shows courage because she had the idea of lying in court, but instead tells the truth and it helps push her and her family out of the…

I would never be the same person, never. I met someone, I hadn't met him in years and I never knew he could make a difference in my life. This man changed the way I thought, acted and dressed. Muhammad Zafar Iqbal, otherwise known as my grandfather, or as we call him, Daddy. Everyone wonders why we call him Daddy, but I don't have an accurate answer.
