it's 🚨 International Albinism Awareness Day 🚨 !!! I’ve made a lot of posts about how albinism is depicted in film/books but I wanted to share what it’s actually like to live with this disease. There are stereotypes around this illness because people don’t understand it 1/21 https://t.co/fv5Hz8F072

PSA: Today is Albinism Awareness Day. @SuperMGames Thank you for perpetuating the Evil Albino trope in media./s Just so you know, Actual people with albinism get hurt and killed to this day because people think their bodies are magic. We just want to exist.

The United Nations created International Albinism Awareness Day to address the discrimination and persecution people with this disease have to deal with. In some parts of the world people with albinism are accused of witchcraft and hunted for their body parts 3/21

It's International Albinism Awareness Day! My albinism causes visual impairment & reduced pigment in hair, skin and eyes. There are different types. I likely have OCA2 or OCA1b. Reduced pigment in my eyes gives me photophobia & means my vision fluctuates w brightness #IAAD2022 https://t.co/VO7xf36aYA
