    "People with albinism is based on the belief that certain body of albinistic people transmit magical powers. this superstition is present in some parts of east Africa. People with albinism have been persecuted, killed and dismembered, and graves of albinos dug up and desecrated. This article reminds me of a documentary ""Albino Killings in Africa"" which talks about the killings continue despite government efforts to stop the practice.
