Albino Boy in Africa

Camilla Magid

 

In Tanzania albino body parts and blood are used in magic potions created by witch doctors and are sold for huge amounts of money. To protect albino children, the government sends them to boarding schools, far away from their families. Following nine-year-old Shida's first year in boarding school, we see the consequences of being hunted and unwanted from a child's perspective.
