Is this finally the positive mainstream coverage the homeschooling movement needs? Will this media attention on a well-educated, Latina woman show the general public that those involved in the homeschooling movement are not only talented, but diverse as well?
Despite these positive developments, it is clear that some people's minds will never be changed. The intolerant enemies of homeschooling have already launched a campaign to intimidate Irene Vilar into not promoting, or even publishing her book:
"As press on the book has begun to leak out, Vilar -- a literary agent and editor --- says she has already sensed "an inkling of hatred."
Vilar has scheduled only closed-door interviews and will not do a book tour. At the urging of her husband, they have made sure all public property records do not reflect her name, so she cannot be targeted at their home.
"I am worried about my safety and the hate mail," she told ABCNews.com in a telephone interview as her home-schooled children were at work on a painting project.
"No book like this has ever been written," she told ABCNews.com."
Will you join me in applauding and standing shoulder to shoulder in solidarity with Ms.Irene Vilar ?
