    Since I’m using a variable now, how do I indicate the string represented by the variable is Unicode?

    By defining it as a Unicode string in the first place.

    zzz = u"foo"

    Or, if you already have a string in some other encoding, by converting it to Unicode (the original encoding must be specified if the string is non-ASCII).

    zzz = unicode(zzz, encoding="latin1")

    Or by using Python 3 where all strings are Unicode.
