Study reveals Black students are disciplined more harshly than White students across U.S. schools.
A study by UC Berkeley's Sean Darling-Hammond and US Department of Education's Eric Ho found Black students in US K-12 schools face harsher punishments than White students.
Black students were 3.6 times more likely to be suspended out of school, 3.4 times more likely to be expelled, and 2.9 times more likely to be arrested at school.
Disparities were also seen in preschool and wealthier schools, with Black students 5.3 times more likely to be suspended in wealthier schools.
The researchers emphasize the need to address these disparities.
