Come on indigenous leaders I believe you can reduce this scourge on your people. This is a crucial issue for self determination to come strongly into play.
Youth suicide happens in the non indigenous population so don't feel that the focus is especially on the indigenous communities. It is an issue for you, so whatever has happened to indigenous people since 1788, while exceptionally relevant, the reality today is desperate youth taking their own lives : your youth.
(See Clarke Tim, "Answers sought over suicides", The West Australian, 27 June 2017, p16)
If you or someone you know is thinking about suicide phone Lifeline on 13 11 14.
May the Force be with you!
