Dr. Bobby Wright underscored perdurable distal anti-African-U.S. (descendants of Africans enslaved in the United States) forces in society as the main impetus for their suicide instead of variables more proximal to the individual championed in multilevel theories. Wright’s argument is advanced as a model bearing his name. Coming again at suicide using the Wright model reveals the inadequacy of the Western conceptualization for African-United States, compels new nomenclature, and expands the gestalt of the phenomenon affording more efficacious intervention and prevention efforts.
