Through Sandra's own experiences, How Dare the Sun Rise also teaches about important topics such as race, privilege, depression/mental health, activism, war, and so on. I believe it would be a great read for middle/high-schoolers because of this, as some of the other reviewers have stated.
"Don't let your silence be another person's death. Fighting for each other is the only way we all win."
