“He took my arm and ran away with it”....this truly breaks my heart....people are sick....they are truly gross and I have no respect for those type of people....I am shaken
@Ollmhargadh not every part of Africa just the ignorant parts of it. That's like saying all americans are racist evan though not everyone thinks with that backwards midset
@KVNG JAY Ironically these days cultural relativism is all the rage in the west and anyone who disagrees is a racist. You can't even critisize grown men marrying little girls anymore..
No offence but you can't fight superstition with superstition. Education is the only cure for this horrible shit. No amount of gods will have any effect.
check out her organisation: Under The Same Sun and other albino organisations where charity work is non-profit and you help them by sending education to people who are ignorant and helping these people be safe in areas where there is a smaller risk they will get attacked and where people will take care of them and help them get to school or be home schooled and still have a chance for a good future with work and kind loving people around them
My best friend is albino. We live in America and I am so glad she does not have to worry as much about things like this. Albino people are just like the rest of us and I hope the people there will learn that, and not attack them anymore .
AandA Nah, some of them are decent like Ethiopians for example. They had beautiful history, great civilization, and their people are mentioned in Bible, Qur'an. I visited there, great ppl.
I have raised 4 children & have been blessed with 3 grandchildren. I would open my door to ANY CHILD in need of a home, protection, love or just as simple as a hug. If it wasn't for my curiosity & hearing this story I would've never known how disgusting hate & ignorance really is. Children should never have to experience such life. Unbelievably heartbreaking.
This is some of the most demonic, dark, heinous shit I have ever heard. Those poor babies, what unspeakable horror those children have experienced. The physical and mental pain would have changed them forever. I just wanted to hold them and love them, and they are still so sweet and loving 💙
@@BigOskiee101 Just because some white people back then attacked black people across the globe doesn't make this problem any less of a problem. honestly what does your hatred of all white people have anything to do with albino children in Tanzania having their arms chopped off or even being killed by specific Tanzanian citizens just for having a genetic condition?
This is just normal life in African culture. If they arrested every single person involved in this practice there’d be twice the amount of replacements for them the next morning. The legal and illegal African immigrants do the exact same practices here in the US but our liberal media only tells the public what it wants people to see. It takes a lot of work to find the stories about what’s actually going on here and how much of a threat it actually is.
@@macromicro3609I find it hilarious that the guy is actually blaming us white people that brought them every modern convenience they enjoy, including the shirt on their back as why some African which doctor is selling albino body parts, lol. When they say the average IQ there is the same as a houseplant, I think they’re being generous. Most of us think most people think and rationalize as we do which is NOWHERE close to how they actually function, it’s insane to see their responses and how they think about future goals.
Blaq Diamond I mean u could just say u feel bad for them and say something like they shouldn’t be treated by the way they look.When u say something like that it sounds like u mean the opposite
So there is no way she could have her son moved closer to her? I understand her situation, but she has her own business so she's able to take care of him money wise (maybe?). Her actual son sees her taking care of other children while he has no mom.
She has to stay in the safe house with the two albino boys because they are safe there, protected from the bounty hunters that might harm them further...
They have to stay at a safe house. This mother obviously loves her son very much. I don't understand the judgment. The son lives with her relatives. He is dark-skin & is more able with society & it would benefit him more to live with the rest of society & remain connected with his relatives. It's harder to understand in Western cultures but family & community ties are very important
infinity 2 the bones. They explained that the witch doctors claim that if they mix the bones with a potion it would grant them luck like winning elections.
Why specifically the hand? When the Congo was colonized by Belgium, King Leopold would tell his soldiers to bring back the right hand of anyone they executed. This was because these soldiers were only allowed a small number of bullets each time, and he didn't want any to go to waste or become stockpiled. Since some of these soldiers were planning a rebellion, they would cut off someone's right hand and turn it in to get more bullets. Since then, this twisted somewhat tradition has developed in certain parts and groups of Africa of cutting hands off. R.U.F used to do it to people who weren't fit for work in the villages they raided.
infinity 2 To make potions. The potions help with things like luck. Luck is a very weird concept. But it is something like increasing the probability of a prefered outcome. To such extent the unusual becomes the usual. But by any logic, would luck not defeat the entire definition of luck itself right? Friend. Have a nice day.
It doesn't matter if they wear rags, cheap corporate clothes or wear suits in high positions of power in government, anything with authority, any form of power control or majority goes. The mind sets of the population will manipulated through money, fear and dependence in all situations so they will be majority mindset all over the world on all levels. Ordinary citizen, authority over the citizen and authorities above the authorities.
ABC News, I am a student teacher candidate in California, and a mother of a two-year-old. I'm going to try to contact you in other ways, but if you are able to reach out to me, I would like any information you have on being able to adopt this child. Thank you.
This story is beyond heartbreaking. How can people be so cruel? I hope and pray there will be no more of these horrific and horrible attacks. God Bless these wonderful people💖
This story is so heartbreaking 💔But what breaks my heart more is seeing these people remaining so strong and resilient in the face of tragedy, remaining joyful & involved. I'm especially drawn to the mother. She is so strong, independent & capable & her son, who felt her love, will become a great person as well 🌈
Weerwet Apologies. My shrink encouraged me to practice expressions of empathy. To help me recognize and practice facial expressions of sadness and love. I guess you were sarcastic to point out the perceived understatement of mine? If not, just forget about my comment so far.
American Pride When I first replied "*Yeah just a tad*" I was using irony to insinuate that your phrase "That is really worrying." was indeed an understatement. In using "Yeah just a tad" (Which was an understatement) I was mimicking what I believed to be your understatement. "That is really worrying." isn't easy to compare to how worrying it actually is. "That is frightening." Would've been less of an understatement. Hyperbole also could've been used to pass a stronger message (But hyperbole should be used sparsely or the usage of hyperboles would be less effective).
I knew nothing of this...how cruel to be attacked and have limbs actually cut off! Touching, amazing stories of some of the heroes helping those that have been hurt so fiercely...
+Spooky C Its pointing out genetic surface features, its not racist. Learn the difference between offensive and racist. Racism involves hate or at least attempt to humiliate towards a race based on how they look, generalization of behavior, language, cultural clothing. Nobody in this reply section was hating their genetic features. Just pointing them out which is slightly offensive only to pussies, I can talk about my own genetic features with someone different than me and not view it as racist or be offended.
truth be getting told You went from having a great point to just being ignorant. Don’t tell people how and when to be “offended” and then call them a “pussy” just because you know how you’d react.
This hurts my heart. My toddler has Albinism and to imagine other adorable children, like my son, living in total fear is agonizing. I am very thankful we live somewhere where this doesn't happen. Those poor kids. Cut their body parts off? SERIOUSLY? That is SICK.
They have gone through so much but they still being such sweethearts, they didn't deserved this kind of thing but they haven't stopped because of that, amazing
I hope the disgusting excuses for human beings that hurt these poor people actual we burn in hell. And no, I’m not going to apologize for saying that about people who think that someone is a human just because of their skin color.
Omgosh I'm trying so hard to watch this all the way through.. This is killing me inside.. The ignorance of this is ridiculous.. I can't think of the reporters name at the moment, but her and her sister are AMAZING in the reporting they bring to light..
I really adore Albino people. I’m really awe-struck whenever I see one, they look so different from the others in a good way. ❤️ I really don’t get why people would hate them.
That's should be illegal, people shouldn't be judged by appearance. That is cruel to go up to a child or a ln adult even and just cut off their arm/hand just because of how they we're born.
Oh my gosh-what an amazing story! The only negative thing I have to say-in a most loving way-is that I wish they had been wearing their seat belts when in the van to visit her son! That was making me very nervous. We just through a tragedy with my sons best friend where his parents and sister were killed just at a traffic light, and he is in intensive care. I don’t know if they were wearing seatbelts or not, but it sure can make all the difference between living and dying in an accident.
Emy Corn ok first off, all across the world body parts are being sold, even entire humans are being sold. Second of all, they take albino body parts because they think they have magical powers
my son has he is legally blind very fair skin very fair late hair I could never imagine anybody ever doing this to him. You are all beautiful the way u are an god an everyone loves jst the way u are .
Given Italy is historically racist, and the attacks on Albinos isn't related as much to race as it is that people are accused if witchcraft...no. Stop thinking everybody thinks the sane way you do.
this really pulled on my heart strings This was so amazing it also is sad to see beings that would harm and kill such special people just to make some cash. this was a very touching story.
Religious belief as a whole, throughout human history, has been the cause of so much pain and suffering. This is just another example of people shaping the world to fit their beliefs and these poor children suffer because of it. We're still, so primitive as a species, believing in a god, gods, demons, spirits, angels and magic and it only seems to be getting worse. My two cents...
+Anton Eightball I mean to be fair the Middle East had it's 8th-13th century golden age where most of our science, medicine and innovation came from but then Islam fucked it all up.
+M H Nah shit sherlock. But the Islamic golden age had little to do with Quranic islam. Islam went through a three-cornered struggle between Faith Party (Ulema), Mysticism Party (Sufis) and Reason party (Falasifa). The Reason Party was strong among the three Parties of Islam during early and major part of Golden Age which was inclusive, secular and tolerant. Al Ghazali was instrumental in bringing and establishing the Epistemological course of Islamic theology. This gradually made Islam exclusive, orthodox and intolerant. Thereafter Muhammad bin Abd al Wahhab, brought in the “return” to the pure and orthodox practice of the “fundamentals” of Islam, as embodied in the Quran and in the life of the Prophet Muhammad.
+M H And in 700 years it has never recovered! Why is that I wonder? Could it be that dominant ways of thinking in Islamic society today are barbaric and medieval?
I hope those disgusting excuses for human beings burn in the fiery depths of hell. And no i’m not going to apologize to people who attack other people just because of the color of their skin.
