This commentary explores how Black home education addresses school choice dynamics for racially minoritized groups, highlighting parent engagement and protection from racism.
Facing a school system that has failed to adequately serve the needs of racially minoritized students, parents with children of marginalized identities may use school choice options to address their children's educational needs . Research with Black home educators has identified how a response to racism combines with parent engagement for parents who seek the promise of education by protecting their children from racism and nurturing an environment where their children can flourish. This commentary proposes a model of identifying the intersecting dimensions of parent engagement and socio and historical situational characteristics when exploring the school choice dynamics for diverse groups.
