"Black Mental Illness and Suicide: Dismantling the Stigma"SUMMARY Jordan and T-Kea, the co-hosts of the podcast Black People Die by Suicide, discuss why they decided to start the podcast and the mission of the newly formed organization, the Mental Health Empowerment Agency. They do a wellness check and discuss the importance of incorporating healthier habits into one's lifestyle, as well as suicide in the black community. Emphasizing that suicide is not just a ‘white person’s problem’, and the passing of Stephen Twitch from the Ellen DeGeneres Show in December 2020 brings the issue to the forefront of conversation amongst the black community. Bringing to light the importance of recognizing the issue of suicide and the need to address it, and the need to create a safe environment for those struggling with mental health issues.
