"Those in the field of suicide prevention and intervention need to know some of the findings in DrSpates’s thought-provoking study. The many stories she shares from the women she interviewed are captivating, as we learn how their convictions give them a sense of self-worth. This book needs to be distributed widely into our communities. What a great read!”
—Donna Holland Barnes, Howard University
“The book lets thirty-three black females speak for themselves in integrating three explanations—relatively high levels of religiosity, denser social networks creating a strong sense of responsibility, and an inner sense of strength derived from a history of coping with prejudice. It deserves to become a classic in understanding race and suicide.”
—Steven Stack, Wayne State University
