Catholic schools always seem to find new ways to make the Church look even worse.

The latest incident comes from St. Martin de Porres Marianist School in Long Island, New York, where last month, headmaster John Holian allegedly disciplined a Black making him kneel in front of his teacher.

When the boy’s confronted Holian about this days later, his explanation didn’t make things better:

[Mother Trisha] Paul told The Washington Post… Holian admitted his role in the incident, and added that he’d been inspired  a  father who did the same to his  — a punishment Holian allegedly referred to as the “African and the  way.”
