When the NY Times reported many blacks are starting to teach their kids at home. Are people who make fun of home school bigots?
"He said some families chose home schooling because they were concerned that the public schools were not adequately teaching African-American history and culture, others taught their children at home to protect them from violence, and, "for some, it's all of this and religion."
Ms. Armstrong said she wanted her children to have a "moral Judeo-Christian foundation" that public schools could not provide.
"I felt that my husband and I would be able to give more of a tutorial, individual learning situation than a teacher trying to address 40 kids at one time," she said.
