"As selfish at it sounds, sometimes the last person we think about in suicide are the people who are left alive. Wondering what they did wrong or how they missed the signs did they not love their child, spouse or friend enough.

Dr. Boyce Watkins poised to answer any questions

Due to their interesting choices in programming, VH1 might be better referred to as “The Evil Empire.”  Their endless stream of reality TV shows tend to focus on taking otherwise irrelevant black people and making them as  recognizable as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr (I’m serious:  There are black kids who could identify a Basketball Wife before they could identify Dr. King – don’t even try Malcolm X or Harriet Tubman).   There is then this awkwar
