Amber Johnston is the founder and leader of a nonprofit organization created to support Black families interested in homeschooling their children.

Johnston said she founded Heritage Homeschoolers after seeing her own daughter’s experience.

She joined WABE’s All Things Considered to talk about how legislative changes to what educators can teach have affected parent’s interest in the group.
