Today, I was bullied by some white kids at my school because I am "black”. Today was also the day I was bullied by some black kids at my neighborhood because I am an albino. It seems I don’t belong anywhere. FML

I'm really sorry about the bullying, bud. Being young is tough... Being any age is tough. I can promise you though, that you will find somewhere to fit in. Don't tell yourself otherwise, okay? You'll find friends that won't even care what color your skin is, they'll just like you for you. I promise.

I'm sorry that people suck. I know it isn't the same, but you could possibly try social media to connect with other youths in your situation? I've read about how it can be to be a PoC with albinism, and I'm sure the reality is a lot worse. If it turns into full blown bullying at school, I'd suggest getting a notebook and filling it with dates, times, people involved, and summaries of the events. Make copies- this way after about a month or so (if the teachers haven't intervened on their own) you can take it to the school counselor, and have evidence to show it is an on going problem. As for your neighborhood- the best I can think of is pamphlets on what albinism is being place on doorsteps for people to read. (Don't put them in the mailbox- it can be considered a federal crime.) Hopefully a bit of educating on albinism =/ white would be enough to knock some sense into them. Edit: Hmmm. Just realized you don't live in the states (location, y u no load first time!?), so I don't know how much of what I said will be helpful, but I hope something I said is.

Well, that sucks. Nobody should be made fun of because of their genetics. I feel for you, I was bullied for being brown.
