[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most homeschoolers I know have one commonality in that they are interested in segregating for a variety of reasons. Religion. Elitism. Social reasons. Special Needs. Whatever the reason, it is clear they want to be around less people and have more control over their children's lives. They aren't as interested in mixing with society. Whether that is good or bad is up to the interpreter.[/quote]

This is certainly true for many black homeschoolers. They have real, legitimate needs for this segregation, in that the schools are downright hostile and bad for black children. Whether its white teachers and administrators who don't see or treat their black students with tenderness and care, [b]a racist curriculum that focuses solely on the self-esteem of white boys[/b], a focus on unfair and strict punishment for black children, severely low expectations on them, or because of white flight, them being forced into a social atmosphere with either 100% poor black children with pathological behaviors of poverty or tokens around 100% well-off white kids who are cold and demeaning towards them, and no in between.

I understand your preference for homeschooling, but where did you get this?  I don't think your knowledge of public school curricula is up-to-date.  It still is subpar, but not for this reason.[/quote]
