I was so sad last night... am urmarit un documentar pe Discovery Channel in care erau prezentate povestile contrastante ale comunitatii de albinosi din SUA, fata de ''nefericitii'' din Tanzania - unde exista credinta (tribala si absurda) conform careia membrele albinosilor pot sa vindece sau pot aduce prosperitate celor care le consuma, de aceea, albinosii sunt vanati si omorati pentru a li se vinde membrele pe sume mari, celor care cred cu tarie in puterea tamaduitoare a ''celor diferiti'', carora soarta i-a lipsit de pigmentul datator de normalitate.
Mai multe despre crimele impotriva comunitatii de albinosi din Tanzania aici:Albinism (from Latin albus, "white"; see extended etymology, also called achromia, achromasia, or achromatosis) is a congenital disorder characterized by the complete or partial absence of pigment in the skin, hair and eyes due to absence or defect of an enzyme involved in the production of melanin. Albinism results from inheritance of recessive gene alleles and is known to affect all vertebrates, including humans. The most common term used for an organism affected by albinism is "albino". Additional clinical adjectives sometimes used to refer to animals are "albinoid" and "albinic".
Albinism is associated with a number of vision defects, such as photophobia, nystagmus and astigmatism. Lack of skin pigmentation makes the organism more susceptible to sunburn and skin cancers.
Documentarul asta mi-a adus aminte de o secventa similara vazuta in filmul District 9, unde, localnicii africani incearca sa consume membre de extraterestri, ("diferit''=albinos=altfel=strain) pentru ca initiasera ideea conform careia, acela care mananca membrele respective preia puterea fostului posesor al membrului respectiv... chiar capata puterea de a se vindeca.
Opriti nebunia asta! Opriti crimele! Promovati Organizatia Under the Same Sun !
