Elsewhere on this site I provide ample information on the phenomenon of albinism and the plight of Africans living with albinism. It is not only a heath issue. It is also a human rights issue. People living with albinism are targeted on the African continent, they are discriminated, attacked, mutilated and sometimes murdered for ritualistic motives. This horrible practice must end.

Fortunately, organizations such as the Source of Nile Union of Persons with Albinism (SNUPA) are making efforts to make the lives of people with albinism more bearable and to fight against the stigmas attached to albinism. They are to be commended for their valuable work but we must realize that it is a matter that concerns us all.
