Though some might say it’s no excuse or a reason, I’d say black parents favor spanking their children moreso than their white counterparts because of the idea of disciplining through spanking has been handed down. After all, weren’t the slaves who rebelled beaten in order to subdue them? In the same way, this psychological effect has stayed with many black parents as a way to subdue their children.
