    Default Racism watchdog Leo alert, is this racism?

    An increase in the number of attacks on people with albinism in Malawi since late 2014 by people seeking their body parts for witchcraft prompted Amnesty International to call on Tuesday for authorities to do more to punish those responsible.

    Will the self titled racism watchdog call this racism?

    I didn't realize albinos were a race or an ethnicity, I thought it was a medical condition?
