Abstract: This inquiry examines Black home education amidst the racialized educational terrain, educational policy and regulation, and state-sanctioned violence. The central question for this conceptual and analytical article is: What are the productive effects of current New York home education policies and associated state laws as Black educators seek, begin, and maintain home study for their children? In response, this inquiry focuses on three home educators in New York State and engages black feminist critique with critical policy analysis to draw out the sociopolitical complexities of reimagining futures for black education. Overall, the article emphasizes the political significance and tensions of Black mothers educating in the home as a challenge to racialized educational subjugation.
