The school year is officially underway and some of us probably already realize that we need help!  That’s why we’re excited to have educator, writer, scientist, and homeschool veteran extraordinaire Kendra Price, from A Heart 4 Homeschool. Kendra has been equipping black homeschooling families with resources, curriculum, information and encouragement through her A Heart 4 Homeschool website and po...

Now you know we had to get together and talk about the Montgomery Sweet Tea Party, or the Montgomery Uprising, or...our personal favorite..."the Fade on the Water". As we share our feelings of shock, awe, pride, and elation, we also try to place this monumental event within a long legacy of the American African's rebellion against racist aggression and white supremacy. We also share...

In this episode, Black Men share some of their personal experiences as Black homeschooling fathers.

A young boy is homeschooled and matures into a young Black Man who is clear in his understanding of himself, his faith, and his passions. This is the goal that many of us who homeschool envision for our sons. This episode, we get to hear from someone who lived that journey. Tyrone Bullock Jr is founder of NuMove Animation, LLC and a recent graduate of the visual effects and animation program at Dr...

In recent years, there has been a torrent of interest in books that are more inclusive, more culturally relevant, and more representative of Black children and Black life. Consequently,  There are more emerging authors out there who are creating books for our children, more than ever before. But how do you take that book from an idea to print? And then, how do you get your community to know t...

We just want to take a moment to celebrate our graduates! It doesn't matter if you graduated from high school or pre-school. And it doesn't matter if you're getting your Ph. D or your GED. You deserve to have your accomplishments recognized!

We weren't going to talk about Will Smith and Chris Rock...then we did it anyway. Why? Because we need to work through the ways various forms of conflict resolution impact our children, our families, and our community. We talk about American "tear-down" culture, healing trauma, protecting Black women, and what conversations we are having with our kids about conflict resolution.

“How am I going to get this kid to college? And who's going to pay for it?” This is the question that our guest this episode is uniquely qualified to help us answer. Melissa A. Rowe is the  Founder of Capture Greatness, a non profit that provides scholarship writing & college coaching support for first-generation college goers and students in under-resourced schools.

It’s Fall and while the weather is cooling down, football season is heating up.  So I am going to make a statement that is unequivocally true: There is no football experience, and I would argue, no greater football experience you can have as a spectator than going to an HBCU college football game in the South Western Athletic Conference, better known as the SWAC. There is nothing like footbal...

What is strategic incompetence? And why are we watching TikTok videos about it? In this episode, a popular TikTok video becomes grounds for some self-examination as Richard and Jason probe deeper into how perspectives of men's and women's work affect homeschooling and the household. They also give some advice on how to improve communication around shared work in our families.

One of the largest hurdles for both students and their parents is feeling confident with math. That lack of confidence can be a result of several factors, but whatever the case, it creates an ever growing barrier for many that prevents learners from feeling like they ever truly possess the kind education that they deserve. Akil Parker is the creator and founder of AllThisMath, an online platform d...

Bruh! You homeschooling now? You too, Sis? We think that's outstanding!  In this episode,  Richard and Jason share a few tidbits of wisdom with you that they have gained as homeschooling fathers over the years.

Many of us have had the struggle of trying to find a history curriculum that is historically accurate and culturally relevant. What's more, we want to teach history in a way that resists token representations of Black and Brown people, while actively combating white supremacy. In this episode, Jason and Richard get a chance to talk with the creator of the Oh Freedom! history curriculum and founder...

In their bravest episode yet, Jason and Richard invite their wives to the podcast to get an assessment of how supportive they are as husbands and fathers when it comes to homeschooling. That opens up an honest dialogue about roles, trust, and the importance of having support for homeschooling, not only between couples, but also within a larger community.

In this episode,  Jason and Richard turn a conversation about food into a conversation about economic self-sufficiency in the Black community.

There is a rich history, definitive purpose, and inspiring passion of Black History Month. While it was necessary to help Black people to learn about who they are, where they come from, and what they can do, more of us is required. There are great opportunities for expansion and education. Jason and Richard discuss how Black History Month should be viewed and the resources available to learn even...
