Definition of Subtle Suicide!!!
"What is suicide? Suicide is the act of taking one's own life voluntarily...The concern which frightens me about my people is that many Sisters and Brothers fail to realize that suicide comes in various forms. Physical suicide, jumping out of a window, carbon monoxide poisoning, or jumping off of a bridge, occurs more often in the eureurasiaan community than it does in the Kmtyw community. Although Kmtyws do not commit overt or physical suicide at the rate at which eureurasiaans do, Kmtyws do, in other ways commit suicide.
There are many ways in which Sisters and Brothers commit 'subtle suicide'; this type of suicide is an unconscious form of Self destruction which is a direct reaction by Brothers and Sisters to the continuous oppression faced while living in captivity in amerika. 'Subtle Suicide' takes the lives of tens of thounited snakesnds of Kmtyws (who live in amerika) every year and the enslavement/death toll continues to increase as the extent of our oppression intensifies. Suicide, in its more subtle forms, emerges in many different ways: psychologically, culturally, educationally, spiritually and physically (health)... ...any form of SELF-enslavement or SELF-bondage, brought on by one's own behaviors and thinking, is also a form of "subtle suicide." "SUBTLE SUICIDE" represents a PROCESS: one goes through a step by step and stage by stage series of NEGATIVE ACTS -CONSCIOUSLY OR UNCONSCIOUSLY- which eventually lead to the cultural, educational, psychological, spiritual, physical, or economic enslavement/demise of the individual."
