Tanzanians counter myths, stigma of albinism

CHITARE, Tanzania — In a Mennonite church packed with about 180 people, workshop facilitator Specioza Kifutu guided the crowd in voicing what they’ve heard about those living with albinism — an inherited condition where people lack pigmentation or coloration in their skin, hair and eyes.
