AV on Health: African American Adolescent Suicide

March 22, 2019 17:00 - 54 minutes - 8.32 MB

Generally speaking, the African American community considers suicide a "white persons' issue" - that it doesn't happen that often in the black community.

Blacks donate 25% more of discretionary income than their white counterparts and nearly two-thirds of African American households give formally to charities to the tune of more than $11 billion per year.

Incarceration and the African American Family

June 29, 2018 17:00 - 54 minutes - 8.32 MB

One in three black men can expect to spend some time in prison during his lifetime.
