#HappyBirthday to the #June13 #BirthdayCohort #StellanSkarsgård @SteSkarsgard & #RumiCarter (of @Beyonce) & ... you?) on #AlbinismAwarenessDay @MSNNews @HindustaniTimes | @411Holidays @BirthdayMates #TheFamousPeople @YourTango @MySundayMass

I sometimes get a little 'thrill' from realizing that I have the same birthday as several famous people, and enough other people get that thrill from seeing their birthday-cohort (both the currently-famous & the probably-not-yet famous) that I figure it's worth doing 'one of these entries for every birthday'---maybe focusing on one of these holidays & or event-anniversaries in each entry)?'

... of course, centering each post on big events like today's International Albinism Awareness Day.

That holiday's explanation (plus 'everything you need to know about #Albinism') is linked through 'the main word' below; but first I want to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...

The word “Albinism” is built on ancient words that mean White (|Alb #Albino) + -ism.
