According to Harare News Our City, Our Lives,
Albinos or people with albinism experience discrimination from birth. Many come from single-parent families as fathers often divorce or leave the mother of an albino child. Mothers of albino children often find it difficult to be fully integrated into their communities because of the negative myths and superstitions which surrounded albinos.
Sadly, albino children also suffer discrimination from their peers at school. Many albinos have a number of eye-related problems, including impaired vision (even with glasses), photosensitivity (sensitivity to light), nystagmus (an involuntary back and forth movement of the eyes) and strabismus (crossed or ‘lazy’ eyes). Unfortunately, teachers often discriminate and place albino children at the back of the class where they can’t see the board.
As a result, albinos are often considered slow or to have learning difficulties when this is not the case. Brian Sithole who has albinism told Harare News, “My mother had to ask the teacher to seat me at the front of the class because I couldn’t see well. After that, my school work improved dramatically.”
