Summary
"An inspiring and empowering young readers edition of We Are Not Here to be Bystanders, the memoir by Women's March coorganizer and activist Linda Sarsour. In this middle grade edition of We Are Not Here to be Bystanders, Linda Sarsour shares the memories that shaped her into the activist she is today, and how these pivotal moments in her life led her to being an organizer in one of the largest single-day protests in US history. From the Brooklyn bodega her father owned to the streets of Washington, DC, Linda's story as a daughter of Palestinian immigrants is a moving portrayal of what it means to find your voice in your youth and use it for the good of others as an adult"--
