Black boys between the ages of 5 to 12 are committing suicide at higher rates than any other racial or ethnic group, according to NBC News.
This latest data is provided by Dr. Michael Lindsey, the executive director of New York University’s McSilver Institute for Poverty Policy and Research . Additionally, according to a recent study in the Journal of Community Health , the suicide rates among Black girls ages 13-19 nearly doubled from 2001 to 2017. For Black boys in the same age group, over the same period, rates rose 60 percent, NBC News reports .
Tragically, this is not a new or emerging trend. According to a 2015 study from Jeffrey Bridge, PhD, director of the Center for Suicide Prevention and Research at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, co-authors, and researchers from the National Institutes of Health, the stable overall suicide rate in children ages five to 11 in the United States during the course of almost 20 years of study [between 1993 – 1997 and 2008 – 2012] obscured a terrible truth. The suicide incidence in Black children during the period nearly doubled going from 1.36 to 2.54 per million.
“These findings highlight a potential racial disparity that warrants attention,” Bridges said.
Further research found that of the 1,661 Black children ages five to 17 who committed suicide between January 1, 2001 and December 31, 2015, 1,225 [73.8 percent] were boys, and 436 [23.2 percent] were girls.
“Black children may experience disproportionate exposure to violence and traumatic stress and aggressive school discipline. Black children are also more likely to experience an early onset of puberty, which increases the risk of suicide, most likely owing to the greater liability to depression and impulsive aggression. Black youth are also less likely to seek help for depression, suicidal ideation, and suicide attempts,” researchers concluded.
This devastating crisis caused Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, (D-N.J.), a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, and Chairwoman Rep. Karen Bass, (D-Calif.), to create the Emergency Taskforce on Black Youth Suicide and Mental Health.
Launched in April, members of the task force include:
Empire star Taraji P. Henson founded the Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation in 2018 “to eradicate the stigma surrounding mental illness in the African American community with a specific emphasis on the suicide rate among Black youth,” the LA Sentinel reports.
Henson has joined forces with the Taskforce to figure out how to get our babies healthy and whole, and not feeling like they need to die when they’ve barely begun to live. “I am here using my celebrity, using my voice, to put a face to this, because I also suffer from depression and anxiety. If you’re a human living in today’s world, I don’t know how you’re not suffering in any way,” Henson testified before members of Congress in July.
“It breaks my heart to know that 5-year-old children are contemplating life and death, I just…I’m sorry. That one is tough for me,” Henson continued. “So, I’m here to appeal to you, because this is a national crisis.”

This is believed to be the first feature film made by a black African in sub-Saharan Africa.
When Diouana goes to bed, she is wearing her wig. When wakes up, she is in curlers.
A 70 min. version includes a color sequence. It was cut to adjust to the length requirements of the French producers.
While the film is far from perfect, it is very important...
This Senegalese film is very important. It's a film made by black filmmakers and espouses a very strong black nationalist attitude. Because of this, it must have really struck a chord for African film patrons. "Black Girl" is a film about a young woman from Senegal that has taken a job working for a white French family. She thinks she was hired to take care of the children but the woman of the house sees Diouana as a personal servant and soon this young lady finds herself working as a maid--and an under-appreciated on at that. Part of the problem is a communication barrier between the white family and Diouana as often neither quite understands the other's expectations. Part of it is the wife is rather cold and sees the Africans as being dumb and beneath her. Where does all this end up? Well, in a sad way it's a giant 'I'm not gonna take it any more' from Diouana--much like the attitude through the continent towards their colonial or former colonial masters. While this is a very important film and it would be great to use in a class about African cinema or world history, technically speaking it has a few small shortcomings. It's not the smoothest or highest quality production--but considering its humble roots, I can easily look past that and it's still worth seeing if you are patient and can appreciate the context for when it was made (such as the Patrice Lumumba banner briefly seen in a tiny portion of the film).
