"Not the only black character in harry potter btw"
Yeah everyone forgets about Hermione
Black Hermione? What
JK pushed a tweet out explaining that she always envisioned Hermione as a black girl.
It was at the beginning of her descent into madness.
That makes the whole SPEW thing even more hilarious. Imagine a black girl starts a campaign to end slavery of house elves, and everybody makes fun of her. The fucking author's position ins that the elves actually prefer slavery and Hermione is stupid for trying to end that.
I swear y'all talk out your ass so much of the time, I get Rowling is a shitty terf but lying about content of the books is just stupid.
Harry freeing dobby is a major plot point
I mean I'm on your side sort of, but in the books most of the Elves do prefer having a master and not getting paid. Which one could and probably should equate to slavery.
Hogwarts is like a super prestigious job for the house elves and none of them want to be paid or freed. Although idk who their master would be technically. They sort of imply it's the headmaster at least.
Winky is just broken after she gets freed. Or fired as she sees it. A hit to her honor, and then she becomes a drunk when they go to work for Hogwarts with Dobby, but even then Winky refuses to get paid iirc.
But yeah there's a lot of out of context things. Fuck Rowling but I still like Potter. Not gonna give any money tho
Besides, it can still be made consensual. Change the contract. Elves prefer being servants? Let them stay as servants willingly while having the option to leave if they prefer so. Keeping only the two extremes yall are slaves and yall are fired also is a pretty much pro-slavery position.
You're right. Sure. We could do that.
Or we can just accept that the Wizarding World is actually made for children and not planned out in the same detail as Middle-Earth & Tolkien's languages.
I would watch a black Hermione rip Harry and Ron some new ones.
Off topic, but I dig black Velma in the reboot.
Sorry to disappoint, but Velma is Indian in the reboot, as Mindy Kaling is Indian.
Not disappointing at all
