A recent study by the Yale
University Child Study Center shows that Black children — especially boys — no
matter their family income, receive less attention, harsher punishment and
lower marks in school than their White counterparts from kindergarten all the
way through college. A subsequent article published in “The Washington Post”
reported that Black children in the Washington, D.C. area are suspended or
expelled two to five times more often than White children. It’s a national
trend that needs to be addressed.
