Those people will use the words they choose. If indeed they are albinos of African heritage, I can only imagine other blacks will not object to them using the word. If they live in some African nations, their troubles will go far beyond the words they use. Some African cultures believe that consuming the flesh of albinos will yield them strength and various powers.

I agree that immediate family disruption will lead to a general downward trend in most people. How far back you wish to take that goes way too deep into speculation for me when you say that someone's great great great grandfather was a slave so the family was disrupted and so I can see why this person is poor/uneducated/likely to commit crimes etc. It then becomes an excuse IMHO. Tens of millions of non black families have been disrupted and we don't give them that excuse. How about the mass of Irish which came and had family disruptions? Or the Vietnamese? Or the Chinese?
I guess I can imagine some other "blacks" (are the people in the pic "black"?) would not object- but I would- and many others would. I don't use skin color to make a determination of what one person is allowed to do/not do- nor do I approve of anyone using skin color as a basis for discrimination.
We cannot influence other nations much as individuals here in the USA- but as a whole we can. We as a people need to stand up, come together, and NEVER allow people to discriminate by skin color- no matter what the good intentions are.
