People with Albinism (“Albinos”) are being hunted.
Right now, in parts of the world, people with albinism are targeted for their body parts—fueled by superstition and a lucrative black market trade. In some places, election years bring a surge in these brutal attacks, as people believe their body parts bring power and wealth.
But this is not just a story of fear and violence—it’s also a story of resistance and change.
In this episode of The GoodViral Podcast, we sit down with Peter Ash, founder of Under the Same Sun, an organization that has played a key role in massively reducing these horrific hunts. Peter, who has albinism himself, has dedicated his life to dismantling harmful beliefs, educating communities, and empowering people with albinism to live safely and with dignity.
Watch, listen, and learn how you can be part of the change.
