We chose this picture because it shows the two differences of Hassan and Amir. The impure black of a Hazara being Hassan and the Pure white of a Pashtun being Amir.
The last irony that we found..Ironic was when Hassan, a Hazara, stood up for Amir who was a "Great Pashtun." Not once or twice but whenever the chance arose, Hassan would stick up for Amir. Whether it was against Assef or even Baba, he would always stick to Amir even if he knew that Amir was in the wrong. For example, when Amir blamed Hassan for the stolen items, Hassan admitted to it, knowing that he had not done it but also knowing that it would make Amir's life easier. Hassan gave away his dignity, his extreme sense of loyalty and devotion to Amir. Everything that Hassan is, Amir is the exact opposite despite where they come from, Hassan being a Hazara and Amir being a noble Pashtun.
" For you a thousand times over" -Hassan
