Teen Mental Health and Suicide In Black Families - Dom and I'll Be There

Suicide is the second leading cause of death for teens in the U.S. While leaders acknowledge a teen mental health crisis, much discourse focuses on suicide as a white issue. The disposability of black lives, coupled with taboos associated with depression and self-harm, prevent many from breaking the silence. Filmmakers Kalia Hunter (Dom) and Kallista Palapas (I'll Be There) recount two young black lives cut short by suicide, and in doing so, compel communities to act.

Filmmakers Josh Sun and Yolande Morrison navigate two very different worlds: living up to their parents' expectations while carving a uniquely American voice of their own.
