DH just brought up this mind boggling point. Where do Albino Whites fit in? Are they white? Are they a footnote? Where DO they belong if whites are a "privileged "and neo-minority class? Where do they fit in in the new social class? Not white (but very very white). They are certainly stared at, so they are a minority...but where do they fit in, in this new social order?

You and the spouse talk about ridiculous things lol. Sorry.

But if someone is an albino born to black parents, then they are black ethnically. An albino born to white parents are white ethnically. An albino born to mixed race parents is a bi-racial/multi-racial person.

Albinism is a genetic condition and has no bearing on ethnicity...

What about black people who are albino? Do they qualify for 'white privilege'?

It is a congenital disorder.

The status of Albino whites is for white people to determine. It's not an issue for the rest of us to consume ourselves with.

I did research and one study said there was a tribe or group and they were albino s but the original white people who later intermingled and wala! If you noticed the white people are not originators of the first people , that we know of. Don't ask for links on my phone no internet in Florida ,

In Africa, they have bigger problems than just being called names, or privilege of any kind. They're hunted for their bones as it brings good luck. No, seriously.

Hunting for humans: African albinos live in fear - CNN

Here I believe it's just an attraction. Like Shawn Ross, a black albino model.

I heard about that. To me people hunting down and killing albinos, JUST for being "albino" of any "race", need to be charged with hate crimes.
