The modern homeschool movement is now 30 years old, but how did we get here? Educational historians identify several key individuals who were instrumental in advancing the movement. These individuals came from very different backgrounds and had very different views. Many homeschoolers, however, do not recognize their names nor their legacies. This talk will introduce and discuss the contribution of three individuals who wrote books and created organizations dedicated to promoting their own vision of education: John Holt, Raymond and Dorothy Moore and Rousa Rushdoony.
