Right now, in parts of the world, people with albinism are targeted for their body parts—fueled by superstition and a lucrative black market trade. In some places, election years bring a surge in these brutal attacks, as people believe their body parts bring power and wealth. But this is not just a story of fear and violence—it’s also a story of resistance and change. In this episode of The GoodViral Podcast, we sit down with Peter Ash, founder of Under the Same Sun, an organization that has played a key role in massively reducing these horrific hunts. Peter, who has albinism himself, has dedicated his life to dismantling harmful beliefs, educating communities, and empowering people with albinism to live safely and with dignity. Watch, listen, and learn how you can be part of the change. ~Chapters ~ 00:00 The Dark Reality of Albinism 10:13 Education as a Tool for Change 20:05 The Ongoing Struggle and Hope for the Future 23:23 Empowering Voices: The Journey of Individuals with Albinism 30:03 Breaking Stigmas: Public Education and Awareness 33:36 Uncovering Trauma: The Hidden Struggles of Albinism 38:03 Expanding Horizons: The Africa Albinism Network 41:32 A Vision for Change: The Future of Albinism Advocacy ~ Under the Same Sun Links ~ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/utss.official/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/underthesamesun Website: https://www.underthesamesun.com ~ About Peter Ash ~ Peter Ash is a passionate Canadian philanthropist and entrepreneur who also has albinism.
