The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Ikpanwosa Ero live from Canada. Born in Nigeria, is classified as a black female with the condition of albinism. This genetic mutation results in melanin deficiency and phenotypical characteristics often associated with people classified as White - pale skin and hair. Ero is an attorney by training and the first United Nations Independent Expert on the enjoyment of human rights by persons with albinism. Gus was literally front row to hear her speak earlier this year at the University of Washington. She detailed the importance of words and even shared an anecdote about her being accused of wielding “white privilege” because of her melanin deficiency. International Albinism Awareness Day was just last month, so we'll ask how she advocated on that day. We’ll also inquire about her definition of Racism and if she’s noted White people’s fascination with albino tigers, albino porcupines, albino skunks and all the mutant critters of the world.
