What does the Arizona joke mean?

Bella joked she got kicked out of Arizona because she's part albino. What does that mean? Is America that bad where they discriminate against pale people? I've only been in England and Australia, so how am I expected to understand this joke? Did Stephenie thing non Americans wouldn't read her book?

She was joking that she's part albino because she's very pale in comparison to other people.
She did not really get kicked out, she left voluntarily.

Arizona is a very sunny place, comparable to central Australia, I guess. It's not abnormal for Australians to have tans, due to all the sunlight, just the same as it's not abnormal for someone from Arizona to have a tan.
