Life in Peril- Tanzanian Albino People
27 Yr old Neema sits on the bed she and her sister share in the single room they rent in a shared multi-family home. Without education Neema has to be creative and persistent to earn a living. Her first business idea was to sell perfume at the market. That business failed as she couldn't sustain the capital to buy the perfume, so, Neema switched to rug weaving. She uses readily available rice bags as backing, and cut up fabrics to create the rug. She works on the pieces one by one in her room. Her main expense is paying a tailor to do the edging - She's waiting to get her finished rug back from the tailor so that she can sell it and start another.
