Today is International Albinism Awareness Day. 98% of people w/ albinism will die by age 40 due to worldwide barriers in healthcare, misinformation, & policy discrimination. It’s sad that people with albinism are given a single day of little-acknowledged awareness. https://t.co/wI25lPdidA

The world has a long way to go in recognising & paying attention to the plight of diverse swathes of people. I sincerely hope greater medical & social awareness is brought to people with albinism across the globe and that we can all do better by them and for everyone. https://t.co/ydEoLPgdFF
