Comment on The Lion, the Hamster and the Snakes

  1. I think white people have the space to talk about racism too. Like, we shouldn’t be talking over POC or hogging the air waves, but silence is complicitness. I view it as a responsibility of those with privilege to do what they can to educate the ignorant. We can’t put all the work of educating people on the oppressed, that’s just more oppression. I view it as our duty to speak, especially because some people may be too far to be reached by POC right away. (And I’ll spare a rant of my feelings on THAT point). Like, in this scenario, any headway made is going to be made because a) Vivian is a pure blood too, and then also b) Harry is famous, and so little 11year old girls are gonna be easily swayed.

    I love reading HP stories with an emphasis on diversity, so I hope you continue!!
