Black Homeschooling: A Response to Racialized Educational Terrain
Moriah Johnson
Journal of School Choice, v18 n4 p572-585 2024
This paper explores how Black parents' school choice, particularly through homeschooling, intersects with the racialized educational terrain. Challenging the view of homeschooling as solely market-driven, the literature review emphasizes race, class, and gender's roles in this decision-making. Unlike Averett and Stewart, who focus on gendered and racial dynamics in school choice, this study proposes Diamond's racialized educational terrain and Cooper's motherwork as frameworks to understand Black homeschooling. This paper aims to shift theoretical perspectives on Black homeschooling, advocating for a more nuanced, intersectional approach to studying school choice.
