18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
A blind or semi-blind world

A group of albino children with a very limited vision share a classroom with these completely blind children in Tika Village in the outskirts of Nairobi in a private school. These young boys and girls are poor, some of them abandoned, but they are also blind. A triple jeopardy in an unjust world. With some exceptions, they lost their sight in the places where they live very possibly by a curable disease. They receive classes from a teacher who is also blind and another one who does not enjoy good vision.
