HuffPo on Minorities Homeschooling

The Huffington Post picked up the story we reported here on Dec. 4th about the CNN news video titled African-American Homeschooling On The Rise, But Why?

Titling the piece Homeschooling On The Rise In Minority Communities, the Huffington Post chose to lead off with the statement, “Since 1999, homeschooling in the United States has grown a dramatic 74 percent, according to CNN.” The article then reiterates “Homeschooling is becoming increasingly popular among minority communities, who feel that their cultural perspective is lacking from American classrooms.”

The rest of the piece is the video clip with Joyce Burges, founder of the National Black Home Educators.
