Yale sociology prof says Christian homeschooling is 'vector of white Christian nationalism'https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=17264A Yale University professor claimed that Christian homeschooling is often “a major vector of White Christian Nationalism.”
Philip Gorski — who teaches sociology — wrote the critique on Twitter after retweeting an advertisement for a Christian school from 1975.

Later, Gorski issued a more comprehensive explanation of Christian homeschooling as a vector for nationalism.
Caveating that “Not all homeschoolers are Christians” and “not all Christian homeschoolers learn Christian Nationalism,” Gorski shared a graphic stating that Christian nationalism is “a cultural framework that idealizes and advocates a fusion of Christianity with American civic life.”
Obviously, Gorski has avoided complicating his narrative by actually being around Christian homeschoolers.
OTOH, my wife and I homeschooled our Kids K-12. With another couple, we formed a support group that in four years grew to 120 families. Our kids participated in sports leagues and a choir for homeschooled children. Just locally, we probably were acquainted with 200-300 homeschooling families. Not all of our support group's members and leaders were "white". Not all of the particpating members of the sports leagues and choir were "white".
We were members of Christian Home Educators Association of California, and volunteered at their regional and statewide conventions. Many attendees and volunteers were also not "white". There are a very few crazies out there, but they are far from the mainstream among homeschoolers who are Christian. They are either shunned or just stay clear of mainstream homeschoolers.
