“If society could begin to see people, as children, as women, then perhaps life would be different.”

“People judge you as this child with albinism and basically there is nothing that they can see and value in you. We are human in everyway like you, that we are entitled to the same dignity as you, that we feel the same cold and the same pain and the same heat that you do, only that we don't have pigmentation.”

“I would like a society in which lam allowed to grow and fulfil my desires, my dreams because we all have dreams.”

“If I am a young girl or a young boy, l think of the same hopes, the same aspirations as every other child, as every other woman, as every other man.”

“When you think about it if you close your eyes and listen to me, would you know that I'm a person with albinism is there anything in my voice that says I'm a person with albinism? so in everyway l am like everyone else.”
