I was scrolling through TikTok and came across a video by someone named Ari who is a person with Albinism discussing usage of the word "albino" and asserting that it shouldn't be used in general (more context on "why": https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdYXhphp/) - rather, that the phrase "a person with Albinism" should be used (more context on the alternative: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdYXmvj5/).
