No child needs spanking. Especially not black children. There are heaps of trauma we have passed down buying into the idea that it’s possible to “spank a kid safe” or buying in to the idea some kids are so bad, so hard-headed nothing else will reach them. But this just isn’t true.

I’m not some wishy washy hippie. I live and teach in the Bronx. I have seen a bad child once or twice.
