Advocates Say Homeschooling Growing Among African-Americans

Advocates Say Homeschooling Growing Among African-Americans is an article at Ethics Daily about the growth in homeschooling among African Americans.

Evidence abounds, however, that homeschooling is no longer just for conservative white Christians who can't afford private schools and countercultural liberals. While they face pressure from a majority in the African-American community that views public education as an institution that helps blacks, a number of articles suggest that growing numbers of black parents are getting fed up with overcrowded classrooms, school violence and an achievement gap between white and black students in public schools.
