His enquiry focuses on Black adolescents' mental wellness service exercise patterns, the exercise of religion inward Black suicidal demeanor (NIMH), salivary biomarkers for suicidal behavior, together with evolution of father-focused, family-based interventions to preclude urban African American adolescent males from engaging inward multiple forms of self-destructive behaviors (e.g., suicidal behavior). When this interview was recorded, physician Joe held a articulation seat equally associate professor inward the School of Social Work together with the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan's School of Medicine. He also served equally a faculty associate together with Associate Director for Research together with Training at the Program for Research on Black Americans at the Institute for Social Research, University of Michigan.

In today's podcast, Sean talks why it is of import to await at the suicide charge per unit of measurement alongside Black American males, specifically adolescent males. He talks almost how recent enquiry has started to set together a profile for Black American Males most at chance for suicide, together with the factors that seem to protect against suicide. He talks almost some of the social together with historical factors associated with the increment inward suicide rates alongside Black Americans. Sean gives an illustration of how he talks with Black Americans almost suicide together with stigma. We talked almost recommendations for social workers who are working with Black American males who powerfulness locomote suicidal, including talking almost faith, valuing that child, having a vision of that kid equally an adult, together with salubrious masculinity. Sean discussed some resources for social workers interested inward learning to a greater extent than almost this topic. We ended the interview with Sean extending an invitation to social locomote clinicians together with researchers to bring together him to amend empathise suicide together with suicidal behaviors inward Black Americans.

If you lot hear closely you lot tin hear the sounds of San Francisco inward the background: a clock chiming, buses loading together with unloading passengers, together with fifty-fifty some pigeons congregating exterior of the interview room. They don’t detract from the interview, but I wanted to give fair warning inward instance you lot were listening to this podcast anywhere were those sounds powerfulness locomote effort for alarm.

Transcript 
Jonathan Singer: Sean, thank you lot so much for existence with us hither today on the podcast to beak almost Black American males together with suicide. And my firstly inquiry for you lot is, how do you lot define “Black American males?”Sean Joe: Most of my locomote focuses on the positive evolution of Black youth. While I do that, 1 of the things that’s of import to understand, equally I’ve said, is variety alongside Blacks. So, African Americans are the largest Black ethnic group, the 2nd largest are Caribbean Area Blacks, based on unlike cultural practices, norms together with differences, you lot take away maintain to convey that into account. So, when we’re talking almost Black males, we’re spanning the Diaspora of Blacks inward the United States.
Jonathan Singer: When nosotros beak almost Black American males together with suicide, why is this a important issue? Why is this something that nosotros desire to beak almost today on the podcast?
Sean Joe: Well, I scream back it’s for a variety of reasons. One, Black males disproportionately deport the burden inward price of how many of them disproportionately take away maintain unlike sort of wellness together with illness, higher rates of joblessness, higher rates of criminal victimization, together with incarceration. But 1 of the things that are unique, when nosotros await back, tell almost xl years, is that Blacks did non commit suicide at levels that were comparable to Whites. And I got involved inward looking at homicide alongside Blacks, which is the leading effort of expiry for Black males fifteen to 44. That got me involved inward suicide. So my involvement inward agreement suicidal behavior, because, inward the field, people talked almost suicide equally the contrary side of homicide together with I don’t scream back that’s totally true, but, anyway, I got interested because I wanted to know whether or non this was some other number nosotros needed to await at. And, given Blacks’ traditional lower rates of suicide, the fact that betwixt 1984 together with 1999 the greatest increment inward rates of suicide alongside immature people was alongside Black males fifteen to 19. So that genuinely suggests that, one, nosotros should empathise that though Blacks take away maintain experienced genuinely hard hardships together with proceed to experience those hardships inward the US of America together with take away maintain all the stressors that should brand them locomote at high chance for suicide, they weren’t but right away a grouping of the population is outset to exhibit higher rates of suicide, that’s when nosotros should await at, what has changed for that population, larn from that, together with and so consider whether or non nosotros tin – are those things are modifiable, together with if they are, nosotros powerfulness apply, non exactly to Blacks but to other groups who take away maintain non experienced the grade of stress Blacks take away maintain experienced but similar, together with and so nosotros powerfulness locomote able to do some prevention around suicide for a larger population.
Jonathan Singer: What take away maintain you lot found, or what do you lot know to be, some factors that are associated with this increased chance for suicide alongside Black American males?
Sean Joe: Well, the groovy thing is that to a greater extent than people are outset to locomote around the area, including myself. One, nosotros are learning right away almost the patterns, nosotros didn’t fifty-fifty know almost the patterns upwardly until almost fifteen years agone together with when nosotros began to consider that one, dark rates were increasing, they’re notwithstanding lower than whites, so, although Black manly somebody rates of suicide are lower than Whites, it varies. For example, we’re learning that Blacks are to a greater extent than probable to exercise firearms, though firearm’s the principal method used inward the United States, their suicides are disproportionately higher inward price of those that involved firearms than their White peers, so nosotros know that. We’re learning that with the petty information that nosotros do take away maintain on the type of firearms, nosotros larn that Blacks are to a greater extent than probable to exercise handguns, white youth are to a greater extent than probable to exercise shotguns. Again, that makes an of import distinction inward price of how nosotros tin consider, you lot know, what sort of prevention nosotros demand to do. We’re learning, of course, that at that spot are sex differences alongside Blacks that, specially with adults, for example, we’re learning that it’s Caribbean Area Black males who study the highest suicide effort rates to a greater extent than than African American males, to a greater extent than than African American females, together with so the lowest grouping is Caribbean Area Black females. So, these are things we’re outset to larn inward the terminal v to 10 years. We’re also outset to larn that psychiatric disorder does take away maintain an impact of suicide chance alongside Blacks. So nosotros know that depression matters, nosotros know that all the heart abuse matters. But together with so at that spot are some differences we’re learning too. So, for suicide attempts, we’re learning that anxiety matters more. So anxiety disorders are stronger psychiatric predictors than mood disorders. So we’re learning that. So we’re outset to take away maintain a practiced feel of the chance profile of Blacks. We know that if Blacks are on, or take away maintain whatever welfare exercise inward the line of piece of work solid unit of measurement that that does non impact their chance for suicide. We know that Blacks’ chance for suicide does non vary yesteryear income, it varies yesteryear education, equally indicated with SES, but non income. So we’re getting a petty to a greater extent than detailed because initially others were positive that it was the middle course of study together with upper middle course of study Blacks who powerfulness locomote at risk, but we’re finding that income does non differentiate chance for Blacks, it does for other groups, but non Blacks, but pedagogy does. So we’re outset to larn unlike things that nosotros tin commence to exercise when considering our prevention strategy inward price of who’s most at chance together with that’s what we’re learning now. Research has done, including myself, together with what I’m doing my lab on race together with on destructive behaviors, we’re outset to empathise chance processes together with we’re also outset to focus much to a greater extent than on protective factors. Because agreement chance is of import but we’re trying to figure out what nosotros tin do to preclude suicides. So we’re learning that things that nosotros thought, these punitive things that nosotros thought were important, similar religion together with line of piece of work solid unit of measurement together with social networks together with closeness, I scream back these things do matter, so we’re non trying to verify that empirically together with how together with when they matter, what aspect of religiosity matters? What do I hateful yesteryear that? Is it religious participation? Is it religious support? Is it this concept of spirituality which is unlike from participation? Is it organized participation, important that you lot could acquire to church, or is it that you lot could pray, spotter religious programs on TV? We’re studying this together with trying to figure out what matters.
Jonathan Singer: And you’re doing that because, if you lot respect those out, together with so you’ll locomote able to say, this is what nosotros tin do to trim down the risks, strengthen those protective factors, together with ultimately trim down deaths yesteryear suicide.
Sean Joe: And that’s our goal. And again, the things that powerfulness locomote for Blacks I scream back it powerfulness locomote really applicable to a broader swath of Americans because, again, this is a grouping for whom slavery, Jim Crowe, together with serious oppression did non Pb to high levels of suicide. So nosotros take away maintain to empathise that what’s happening with this population nosotros must consider. For example, 1 of the things that I’ve been doing, together with nosotros flora some practiced findings for this, is that Blacks’ attitudes toward suicide changed. So betwixt the sixties together with the outset of the 21st century, Blacks’ attitudes toward suicide changed with younger Blacks were to a greater extent than accepting of suicide equally a reply to life struggles which were unlike from older Blacks, so we’re outset to larn that. Because younger Blacks’ rates are similar or parallel to younger whites, now, it’s suggested that what was going on with younger Whites is that they take away maintain similar accepting attitudes toward suicide. And nosotros flora that out inward the national studies that younger Blacks, younger Asians, younger Hispanics together with the national representative sample did non vary statistically inward price of their attitudes towards suicide. They had similar attitudes towards suicide together with so are to a greater extent than vulnerable to suicidal forces. So we’re outset to larn things that nosotros tin use. Now, inward behavioral change, 1 of the things nosotros assay to focus on is if you lot assay to modify people’s mental attitude towards a behavior, it’s something that you lot tin exercise clinically. So nosotros assay to modify people’s mental attitude towards smoking, towards drinking, right? And nosotros desire to modify their attitudes together with give them information together with cognition that changes their attitude. It’s non going to halt someone from existence suicidal yesteryear exactly changing their norms, but it tin locomote helpful. If they don’t scream back this is something they should do because they empathise that it’s a long-term solution to a short-term problem. Though, I desire to admit that people do experience hurting together with that’s real, it’s non existent to us, but it’s existent to them together with that’s what we’ve got to focus on. But our finish is to modify attitudes because I do scream back this is an instance where suicide stigma could locomote used together with the inquiry is, how do you lot exercise it? So studying Blacks together with their suicidal rates together with related to that, is unearthing these sort of concepts together with ideas that, well, sometimes stigma’s practiced together with sometimes stigma’s bad, together with how do nosotros know when to force it inward which way together with which direction together with how do nosotros do it inward such a way that it doesn’t alienate or isolate suicidal adolescents? So it makes us take away maintain to scream back almost that. It doesn’t isolate families whose kid is experiencing suicide or whose married adult man is experiencing suicidal thoughts. So nosotros take away maintain to figure out how to exercise stigma inward really unique ways. At the same fourth dimension nosotros exactly don’t desire to do universal strategies that brand suicide a normalized behavior. So, again, studying Blacks together with ethnic minorities genuinely gets these sort of issues to come upwardly almost for us to beak almost them because otherwise nosotros don’t genuinely scream back almost them together with it hasn’t been represented inward the literature until nosotros started some of these conversations.
Jonathan Singer: So you lot exactly mentioned using the stigma that surrounds suicide. I was wondering if you lot could beak equally if you lot were talking to Black American males almost suicide together with stigma. What sort of things would you lot say? And of course of study I’m thinking almost this because folks are listening to the podcast together with they’re like, oh, so the procedure together with this together with that, but I’ve got to acquire consider a customer correct right away together with what am I going to tell to him or what should I locomote thinking inward the dorsum of my mind?
Sean Joe: Well, it depends on what we’re trying to say. If you’re trying to communicate that their kid powerfulness locomote at chance for suicide, I scream back you lot exactly demand to tell that. If you’re trying to innovate to a kid who is suicidal, I scream back what you lot tin commence to beak about, to assist with the stigma, I think, what I assay to focus on is self destructive behaviors. Where nosotros define self destructive behaviors, I’m non talking exactly risky behaviors, I’m talking behaviors for which, if you lot engage inward that behavior, at that spot volition locomote some physical impairment to your body. And it tin acquire from, smoking tin locomote included inward that, to genuinely suicide. So I exercise that to form of de-stigmatize the conversation, together with I would encourage people to do that. Why smoking? Because people engage inward smoking behaviors. They know every fourth dimension they swallow or inhale, it affects their lungs. Things are dying that are non going to come upwardly back. They know that. So that is self destructive but it’s non necessarily suicidal but, inward the long term, expiry is a possible final result from what they’re doing. And they convey that. So I tin commence conversations almost self destructive behaviors. But my conversation ofttimes focuses on concepts of promise together with primarily faith, together with non fully from a religious dot of view. Once I assist people to empathise the behaviors we’re concerned almost inward the spectrum, you lot know, of self destructive behaviors, I scream back you lot tin beak with people almost religion to assist them to together with promote the thought simply, together with this is the way I would acquire forwards with doing it, life is hard, life is painful, I desire to beak almost that. But the 1 thing nosotros empathise almost life is that things tin acquire amend together with I demand you lot to concur onto that. And there’s going to locomote a lot of prove to propose that things are never going to acquire better, I guarantee you lot at that spot is a twenty-four hr menstruation that things are going to acquire better. And I don’t tell that because I exactly desire to tell it to you, it volition acquire better. And I assay to respect those examples inward their life together with inward my life that I’ll say, at that fourth dimension when you lot thought whatever you lot were experiencing that it wasn’t going to acquire amend or the hurting won’t stop, or you lot stuck your finger, you lot know, or you lot got a splinter, you lot though this is never going to end, did it non acquire better? But you lot had this 2nd that you lot couldn’t tell you lot that it wasn’t going to acquire better. It’s the same way life is together with it does acquire better. And how do nosotros start to construct that together with focus on means together with assist them to empathise that.
So those are some of the things I would commence to tell that you lot could commence to beak with families, one, almost the demeanor that you’re concerned almost together with beak almost it specifically, set it inward a context of wide self destructive behaviors. Because people do commence to forget that people brand choices together with they weigh, you lot know, the pros together with cons of behavior, together with people start to take away maintain this rational pick framework like, well, if they knew it was harmful they wouldn’t do it. No, nosotros don’t ever exercise similar that. We do things that nosotros know are harmful together with nosotros convey them together with nosotros alive with them. So don’t set a gap betwixt you lot together with the somebody because you lot scream back they should locomote smarter than that. You know, nosotros brand these choices together with nosotros alive with them. You do it, I do it, adults do it, children do it, let’s set it inward that context. And together with so focus on the thing I scream back that matters, beyond exactly getting mental wellness services together with dealing with, you lot know, how to procedure together with changing people’s attitudes together with cognitive orientation. The thought of talking almost religion together with agency, non exactly promise because promise takes a long fourth dimension to build, religion is the fuel for hope.
Jonathan Singer: So, Sean, I’m genuinely interested to know, at the chance of, you lot know, generalizing or talking inward stereotypes, I’m wondering if you lot take away maintain whatever recommendations for social workers or clinicians inward full general who are working with Black American adolescents who powerfulness locomote suicidal.
Sean Joe: Well, one, I scream back it’s of import to shroud broadly together with exactly don’t await for adolescents who powerfulness take away maintain the linguistic communication to acquaint the symptoms that clinicians are used to hearing. To await beyond exactly the clinical setting, to scream back almost those playgrounds, scream back almost those rec centers. And whatever our studies on Black adolescents, nosotros consider that at to the lowest degree l percentage of those adolescents who take away maintain attempted a suicide did non run into criteria at the fourth dimension for DSM-IV disorders. So you lot take away maintain to scream back broadly almost what you’re looking for. And they powerfulness locomote exhibiting their depression inward unlike ways or their anxieties inward unlike ways inward price of they powerfulness locomote exhibiting it behaviorally, inward price of how they act, non necessarily what they communicate. So you lot take away maintain to scream back broadly almost the symptoms together with the indicators that these immature people powerfulness locomote inward trouble.
One of the other things I scream back you lot must consider equally you lot scream back of working with Black adolescents, specially with males is that you lot take away maintain to have, one, you lot take away maintain to value that kid despite what demeanor they’re exhibiting. And they’ll know whether or non you lot value them together with if you’re authenticity is non at that spot yesteryear that value, it volition come upwardly truthful together with it’s form of hard for you lot to assist someone you lot don’t value. It’s exactly form of hard. And if you lot don’t take away maintain a vision that this immature somebody could also grow upwardly together with transition to locomote a immature adult who is working together with could locomote salubrious together with could locomote contributing to society, together with so you lot take away maintain a really hard fourth dimension leading them anywhere because you lot don’t take away maintain a vision for where you lot demand them. So you lot must take away maintain a positive youth evolution framework equally you lot are working with them equally well. The other thing I desire to tell is that patch inward the context of existence able to locomote with them, exactly empathise that this idea, and, you lot know, Martin Luther King said this inward 1967, he raised a quote, I scream back the guy was Victor Hugo or 1 of these, you lot know King used to quote these wonderful people, together with King’s quote was genuinely interesting together with it’s almost valuing people again. In the darkness - you lot know, so let’s tell the way nosotros create social club inward such a way creates a darkness for people together with people coming out of the darkness, whether it’s the depression, together with you lot know nosotros beak almost it inward that way, is that - you lot exactly can’t locomote concerned together with desire to blame the sinner for the sins that are created inward the darkness. You take away maintain to scream back about, the truthful moral sin are those who created the darkness. So, again, you’ve got to convey a really very positive orientation towards who you lot are working with together with that would apply.
The terminal thing I would tell you lot must take away maintain an agreement of masculinity when you’re working with males together with I scream back that’s an of import concept. And specially when you lot desire to focus on salubrious masculinity, that’s what my conversation is correct right away with clinicians together with people nationally almost suicide prevention, it’s that manly somebody masculinity, specially equally it relates to assist seeking, specially equally it relates to behavioral choices are going to locomote an of import thing. So nosotros must take away maintain concept of salubrious masculinity to locomote able to beak almost that. What do I mean? To encourage that vulnerability, seeking help, finding places to beak over your thoughts together with emotions inward a way that is going to locomote appropriate together with it depends on the Black males that you’re dealing with. You’ve got to figure out whether or non they take away maintain outlets to limited their concerns together with their hurting inward a way that they don’t experience victimized for doing that. But propose to them that it takes much to a greater extent than strength to beak almost your problems than to conceal your problems. I scream back that you’ve got to encourage that together with the concept of give-and-take almost masculinity together with the type of homo that they’re going to locomote together with what that sort of strength it takes to locomote vulnerable versus concealing. You take away maintain to beak almost salubrious masculinity inward price of, masculinity is non existence able to tell other people are weaker or to demonstrate that, to locomote focused on powerfulness denomination. You’re going to take away maintain to assist them with that. So these sort of conversations I scream back are helpful equally you lot are outset to locomote with Black males.
Jonathan Singer: So, Sean, my terminal inquiry for you lot is a inquiry that powerfulness locomote on the minds of some of the folks who take away maintain been listening which is, ok, so let’s tell I’ve got a Black American male, an adolescent, perhaps an adult who is suicidal, what resources are out at that spot that I tin access to assist me locomote a amend service provider, so I tin do a amend labor of working with that customer population?
Sean Joe: Well I was trying to tell before, the literature is right away existence developed, the scientific soil for developing interventions together with resources. If you’re exactly interested inward agreement suicidal behavior, non exactly specially Black suicidal behavior, I scream back you lot tin acquire to American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (http://www.afsp.org), you lot tin acquire to American Association of Suicidology (http://www.suicidology.org) together with they’re going to take away maintain some basic resources almost screening together with identifying people, or to Yellow Ribbon, 1 of these other programs, I scream back the same sort of concepts notwithstanding apply. We don’t know if they’re effective for Blacks because it hasn’t been tested. There are no known interventions developed exactly for Black adolescents that has been tested, so that locomote hasn’t been done yet. That’s 1 of the things that I originally started out wanting to do but nosotros didn’t fifty-fifty take away maintain the basic information fifty-fifty for me to do that, that’s why I’ve been spending a groovy bargain of fourth dimension trying to empathise chance profiles together with chance factors together with protective factors. Other things that 1 tin do, tin acquire to National Organization of People of Color Against Suicide (http://www.nopcas.com) together with they’re outset to describe together unlike literature whether it’s around grief together with grieving, unlike literature around depression or unlike psychiatric disorders together with how to commence to locomote with Blacks around that. Then assay to acquire a practiced read or a majority on experiences of Blacks. There’s no national majority on the Blacks’ suicidal experience, if you lot desire to telephone telephone it that. So though you’ve got Carla Fine’s No Time to Say Goodbye, I scream back that’s a practiced resources to assay to empathise together with create do with the loss of someone, so I scream back you lot would desire to await at that. To empathise Black manly somebody experience, specially with the adult male, I scream back John Head’s majority Standing inward the (Darkness [sic]) Shadows is a practiced majority which is 1 of the few majority to beak almost Black depression together with his thoughts almost suicide, fifty-fifty potential effort equally a professional person male. And he takes you lot from his childhood forwards together with how he dealt with his mental wellness together with his mental illness. So I scream back that’s a possible resources for them to await at. What was the other component division of your question? I’m sorry.
Jonathan Singer: It’s okay. So I asked almost resources for folks who are wanting to render amend services and, you lot know, I scream back you lot addressed that. The other thing that I’m hearing from what you lot are maxim is that there’s a existent demand to do this research.
Sean Joe: We take away maintain to do a lot to a greater extent than together with 1 of the things I’m trying to do is to seat immature scholars who are interested inward working on suicide enquiry with Blacks both inward price of trying to empathise the epidemiology together with chance but to a greater extent than those who are trying to empathise how to develop intervention together with services for this population. For example, what services are available to assist families who are grieving with a suicide? What’s the protocol? We don’t genuinely take away maintain those sort of materials. We don’t know how to locomote with grieving Black families together with survivors. We don’t take away maintain that sort of fabric so nosotros demand to develop that. So it’s a rich chance for immature scientists together with clinicians who are interested inward doing scientific discipline to come upwardly together with bring together us together with acquire involved inward developing this content. It’s sorely needed together with it’s a groovy chance to contribute meaningful science, meaningful information. And it’s going to locomote utilized because, again, everything that nosotros plow out it is the firstly together with I acquire genuinely practiced feedback that nosotros should proceed to do what we’re doing at Michigan around these issues. If I tin locomote helpful, allow me know.
Jonathan Singer: Ok, so that’s a genuinely exciting invite. I suspect there’s in all probability a social worker who’s listening to this podcast correct right away saying, wow, so I could genuinely contribute to the firstly agreement of an intervention or the firstly agreement of…
Sean Joe: Well, for example, 1 of the things, I’m collaborating with the dentists and, you lot know, with the large thought that nosotros powerfulness locomote able to develop tools that, together with it’s a buyer marketplace study where you lot could exercise human saliva to commence to assist seat or shroud people for chance for suicidal behavior, together with we’re working on that. We’re ii years into it right away and, again, it’s exciting things that we’re trying to come upwardly up with. And I focus on that because equally social workers nosotros take away maintain to locomote able to shroud or refer together with fifty-fifty assess, I scream back that’s our principal exercise inward suicide prevention. Though some powerfulness locomote doing handling together with services, but I scream back our principal finish is how tin you lot screen. So we’re trying to figure out how to exercise saliva equally a diagnostic tool for identifying suicidal behavior. So this is a wonderful fourth dimension to acquire involved intellectually together with it’s meaningful work.
Jonathan Singer: Well that’s great. Sean, give thank you lot you so much for taking the fourth dimension to beak with us today.
Sean Joe: Glad to locomote here. Thank you lot for the invitation.
Jonathan Singer: Absolutely. And we’ll set links upwardly on the website for some of the resources that you’ve mentioned together with it sounds similar if folks are listening to this podcast together with they take away maintain questions that they tin contact you lot together with we’ll set your contact information on.
Sean Joe: I’ll locomote glad to. Thank you lot again.
Jonathan Singer: Alright, thank you lot so much.
