Most homeschooling spaces lean conservative, and that includes many BIPOC homeschooling communities. But what happens when you're a progressive homeschooler who doesn’t fit into the traditional mold? In this episode, we're unpacking why this podcast is intentionally for progressive Black and Brown homeschoolers, how Christian conservatism has shaped BIPOC homeschooling spaces, and why it’s crucial to create learning environments rooted in truth, justice, and liberation.
We’ll talk about the conservative stronghold in our own communities, the role of religion in pushing racism, misogyny, and homophobia, and the importance of carving out spaces where we don’t have to justify our values. Because not all skin folk are kin folk, and we don’t always fit—but that doesn’t mean we don’t belong.
Tune in and let’s build something different.
