Klappentext zu „Exploring Single Black Mothers' Resistance Through Homeschooling “
This book expands the concept of homeplace with contemporary Black homeschooling positioned as a form of resistance among single Black mothers. Chapters explore each mother's experience and unique context from their own perspectives in deciding to homeschool and developing their practice. It corroborates many of the issues that plague the education of Black children in America, including discipline disproportionality, frequent referrals to special education services, teachers' low expectations, and the marginalization of Black parents as partners in traditional schools. This book demonstrates how single mothers experience the inequity in school choice policies and also provides an understanding of how single Black mothers experience home-school partnerships within traditional schools. Most importantly, this volume challenges stereotypical characterizations of who homeschools and why.

Pressezitat
"Home-schooling single mothers may find in this book resources to avoid the shame often associated with their situation. Researchers will find four detailed life stories that intricately intertwine the motivations and sociological factors explaining the decision to homeschool. Policy makers could read how some mothers feel compelled to homeschool by a public system that fails to provide acceptable solutions, but also that homeschooling can contrastively be experienced by seemingly disadvantaged mothers as a positive choice." (Philippe Bongrand, Educational Review, Vol. 74 (3), 2022)
