I’d rather be a “radicalized” secular humanist than a gatekeeping “Christian” any day.

Homeschooler. But, the critical thinking kind. Find others and be a part of a truly secular and inclusive homeschool community at strictlysecularhomeschool.com We are very active on discord, and run a fully free co-op as well. Social clubs, curriculum reviews and more! #homeschool #lgbtqia

Nothing says reality check like filming a lesson on getting good sleep, with your cat having the zoomies in the background. Good example of being well rested, I guess? #zoomies #homeschoollife #education

Started writing Mind Questing Adventures Vol. 2 this morning! #curriculum #socialemotional #questing #homeschool #secular

By all means, teach children to ask questions and then berate them for doing so, see where that gets you. #curiositycontrol #freethinking #knowbetterdobetter #growth

I’ve been working on a side project! Social Emotional Learning with a nerdy twist. It is geared towards middle grade age and up, but can be adapted easily for older and younger audiences. Check it out here:

I’m a homeschooler toting giant science encyclopedias alongside books about empathy, gender identity, and African history. Teaching to the zone of my learners comfort, not their “age assumed level”, creating curriculum where there is none, and learning alongside them. #homeschooling #learning

No, Ma’am you’ve got it all wrong. I’m not a homeschooler in a Christian, Classical way. I’m a homeschooler teaching “know better, do better”, literary analysis, raising globally empathetic and culturally aware humans. Understanding all of history, no white wash. #homeschooling #teaching

Schooling without critically analysizing religions shaping our universe just repeats the cycle of surface level understanding, cultural appropriation, and continuous control through limited knowledge. #isaidwhatisaid #secularhomeschooling #history #analysis #criticalthinking

Oh absolutely!

Autistic folk and their support needs need SUPPORT, actual functioning support. It isn’t a disease therefore can’t be “cured” but support catered to the persons needs, resources for those who are stuck in the trenches, and understanding of what Autism is (beyond hate/pointing rhetoric) would help.

You can eat all organic food, drink green juice every day, do yoga, get vitamin D and touch grass… and still become disabled.

Wellness culture can’t save you from disability. What’s worse, most wellness “gurus” will blame you when you become ill.

Wellness culture is toxic & eugenics adjacent.

Autism and other neuro types are genetic. There ya go, solved the “research” problem, now get on with adequate supports and affordable diagnosis for adults who have been misdiagnosed, children who are awaiting services for months/years, and TRAINED folks able to provide care.

If you’re looking for a homeschool community that values truly secular and inclusive material, this is where its at! Supportive community (especially in Discord!) and a wealth of resources.

Lori Beth Denberg reprised her All That librarian character to do a pro-library, anti-book banning reel and I love it so much??? www.instagram.com/reel/DIK0_bD...

What do secular and inclusive really mean when it comes to homeschool curriculum?

Spoiler: it's more than just "no Bible verses" or adding a token diverse book.
