Analyzes the disproportionately high suicide rates among White and Native American populations, exploring contributing factors such as socioeconomic disparities, historical trauma, cultural stigma, and access to resources like mental healthcare and firearms. It applies Émile Durkheim's sociological theory of suicide, focusing on social integration and regulation (egoistic, anomic, altruistic, and fatalistic suicide), to understand these disparities. The text also proposes various research avenues to develop more effective, culturally sensitive suicide prevention strategies, including strengthening community support, improving economic stability, and addressing historical trauma. Finally, it emphasizes the need for comprehensive approaches that consider the unique contexts of each affected group.
