Family Of Black Brazilians Had Three Albinos, Pernambuco, Brazilia

Albinism affects people from all races and its frequency across the human population is estimated to be approximately 1 in 17,000.
Society and culture
In physical terms, humans with albinism commonly have vision problems and need sun protection. But they also face social and cultural challenges (even threats) as the condition is often a source of ridicule, discrimination, or even fear and violence. Cultures around the world have developed many beliefs regarding people with albinism. This folklore ranges from harmless myth to dangerous superstitions that cost human lives. Cultural challenges can be expected to be vastly higher in areas where pale skin and light hair stand out more from the ethnic majority's average phenotype.
