LongRamblings Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Has anyone used Oh, Freedom curriculum by Woke Homeschool? It is a history curriculum that is supposed to give the other side of history from the perspective of minorities. I would love to know if you have any experience with it and hear your thoughts.

kbutton Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I downloaded the sample, but my kids are on the old side for it. I would love to hear about it if anyone else has information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobblygook Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I bought it for my rising 5th and 8th graders. I plan to use parts of it as a supplement rather than using the whole thing as-written. The spine, by Howard Zinn, is pretty controversial so I'm planning to use Hakim or another resource that is more middle-of-the-road. There is also some concern about how indigenous people are covered in the program so I'm planning to add to that as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobblygook Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 (edited) I have also heard good things about Blessed Heritage. There aren't samples on the site, so I've inquired of the writer and have yet to hear back. I believe Blessed Heritage's middle school program uses Hakim as the spine.

Terabith Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Okay, so I'm not homeschooling next year, and my kids are a little old for it, but that looks SO cool! What is the difference between the regular and secular editions? I adore Zinn, although I'd probably also want to add in another spine like Hakim to fill in other details.
