Notable suicides include Don Cornelius and Actor Lee Thompson young, Junior Seau. Chris Lighty. Jovan Belcher.
According to the American Association of Suicidology, in 2005, 1,992
suicides were completed by African-Americans and that suicide was the
third leading cause of death among African-American youth. The Centers
for Disease Control reported that between 1999 and 2004, young
African-American males had the highest rate of suicide. This latter
finding is consistent with research that males are more likely to
complete suicides whereas females are more likely to attempt suicide.
