Nikita Bush's career as a public school teacher came to an end when she faced the decision of how to educate her own children. Having been told for years that American public schools would eventually get better for black children, the number of African-American homeschooling parents like Ms. Bush has doubled in little over a decade.
As Patrick Jonsson of the Christian Science monitor reports, studies show all kinds of public school problems disproportionately affect black children, and many parents have decided to take matters into their own hands. Even single parents are forming co-ops to make it possible to educate their children together outside of the public school system.
What do you do when you feel the system is failing your child and their education?

I refuse to accept the myth that black people can't be racist(because slavery) and somehow you want different rules to apply to black people, but only when it's your advantage. When it isn't your advantage it's racism, because slavery. Want to fix the issues black people often face? Look within.
