Even more evidence that we need more mental health programs.
I'll go ahead and say it. It's amazing. If the numbers were reversed between Black and White suicide rates, people would be screaming all over the place. Instead, it's a footnote. The white male suicide rates are staggering.

I have no research to substantiate this, but I would assume a very large majority of these suicides are the result of hard economic times in which the man feels he can no longer provide for himself and those around him. At the risk of sounding racist, many black men abandon their families and have learned to live on very small monetary rations.
