Some tribes across Africa were known for hunting, killing, and eating women they deemed witches. I couldn't find a source, but I remember reading about it. I think the last recorded successful hunt occured in the 90's.

I did however find this a 2008 article written by the guardian, that talks about the sell and use of albinos in Tanzania. It has absolutely nothing to do with my original point, just thought it was interesting and very fucked up.

A friend is mine is albino and turned down a job offer in South Africa around that time. The thought of even being the same continent with that going on made him profoundly uncomfortable.
