For years, Black parents frustrated by traditional schools have been pulling their children out of classrooms to educate them at home — and that decision is becoming more common. St. Louis Public Radio's new podcast Doin' It Our Way explores why Black families in the St. Louis region are choosing to home-school. Host and STLPR newscaster Marissanne Lewis-Thompson joins SLOTA to talk about the process of reporting the new podcast, and what she's learned about how these families are managing to do education — their way.
