Suicide? (Re)Introducing the Bobby Wright Social–Political Model of African-U.S. Own-Life Taking or African High-Tech Lynching

Abstract

Dr. Bobby Wright underscored perdurable distal anti-African-U.S. (descendants of Africans enslaved in the United States) forces in society as the main impetus for their suicide instead of variables more proximal to the individual championed in multilevel theories.

Coming again at suicide using the Wright model reveals the inadequacy of the Western conceptualization for African-United States, compels new nomenclature, and expands the gestalt of the phenomenon affording more efficacious intervention and prevention efforts.
