Breitbart: South African Bishop Sithembele Sipuka has denounced the epidemic of violence against albinos, calling on the African church to employ all its resources to bring the practice to an end.
Sipuka, the Catholic bishop of Mthatha and first vice president of the Symposium of Episcopal Conferences of Africa and Madagascar (SECAM), said this week that the symposium condemns “all forms of violence against albinos,” from murders to mutilations to prejudiced attitudes.
In certain African countries like Tanzania, Malawi, and Mozambique, people with albinism — a congenital condition that leaves a person without pigmentation in their skin and hair — are often hunted and killed for their body parts, which can be sold for thousands of dollars and are used in witchcraft rituals.
Some witch doctors claim that bones and other body parts of albinos, especially children, can bring riches, success, power, or sexual conquest.
“It’s the mindset that needs to be changed,” Bishop Sipuka said, adding that superstitions against albinos are deeply rooted. read more
SNIP: This is 2019 and we still have superstitious shitholers???
It’s Africa… filled with Africans, what’d you expect?
But… violence against infidels
Have they ever condemned this before ?
Where’s Hollywood on this? The only albino I ever saw in a movie or Television was Robert Duval in “To Kill a Mocking Bird”?
What about the belief that having sex with a virgin will cure AIDS?
There are superstitious shitholers everywhere. At moetom, there have been more than a few, including Powder, White Shadow & Albino United….. not to mention the fake albino, Caliban in Logan. and NO I am not an albino-queer, I looked it up.

If I was an African Albino, I’d move to Albania, where I would have some hope of being accepted.
Perfidious Albion would be another good choice.
Maybe Albany NY.
Crackerbaby. Yoy talkin’ ta me? I never saw a movie featuring albinos. Enlighten me.
@Moe Tom
Hollywood hasn’t caught up to the Albino rage yes. Albinos are the next “thing”.
Soon, in a theater near you: Albino Vampires. Also, Night of the Living Albinos.
For the romantically inclined: Albino Love Fever.
Whell, the United Nations needs to put a stop to this violence against Albinos once and for all.
If the UN can stop terrorists it certainly ought to be able to stop Albino hunters.
God was being niggardly when doing out skin pigment to Albinos.
There was an albino in the film Harper, with Paul Newman. He was a shifty bad guy. And he wasn’t a real albino.
Michael Jackson?
Now that whole thing makes sense,,
Who da thunk!
IOTW always works it out!
Bravo to all!
We need Johnny and Edgar Winter to go all Frankenstein on their Arses
Let them know that…
Winter is Coming!

The albino in Harper was not an albino. STFU!
Neither was he in “the Firm.”
I’m not an Albino… I just don’t go outside much…
DAMN RACIST WHITEYS!!!!
Wait…- whut? 😳
Moe Tom, the character was “the albino”, the 4th man.
Of course it was just a white guy in a tux, with a bleached flat top, and some Shuron Zyls. He was one of those fuckers at The Piano Bar. With Puddler. Scary mofos.
As Lew Harper said, “You fish-eyed faggot!”
No one would ever hire a real albino for film work. Do you know how much their body parts are worth?
After all this, got to throw this one out there,
Klaus Kinski , (one of the creepiest looking things ever).
Albino? NO!
Some others facts about him,,,

And we wonder still today who Hollywood still supports.
Obama is an albino. Pass it around.
My grandma was a German albino. She and the other girls (also albino) were ferried over right before the second war kicked off.
The head of the school/orphanage saw the writing on the wall and took action.
It has to be one of greatest things ever. To be all white.
Approximately, what year is it in Africa right now?
