The Rise of African American Homeschooling

Last month, Fletch read an interesting article in The Washington Post called, Racism in Schools is Pushing More Black Families to Homeschool Their Children. The title alone was enough to get him interested, but in the article the writer discussed why there has been such a sharp rise in African American Homeschooling.

We thought this was a good discussion to have with our listeners, so we pursued the author for an interview.
