Charles D. WilsonRace matters in the fictional Wizarding World of the Harry Potter
series as much as it does in the real world. As J. K. Rowling continues to reveal
details about the world she created, a growing number of fans, scholars, readers,
and publics are conflicted and concerned about how the original Wizarding Worldquintessentially
white and Britishdepicts diverse and multicultural identities, social subjectivities,
and communities.- ; Harry Potter and the Other: Race, Justice, and Difference in the
Wizarding World is a timely anthology that examines, interrogates, and critiques representations
of race and difference across various Harry Potter media, including books, films,
and official websites, as well as online forums and the classroom.As the contributors
to this volume demonstrate, a deeper reading of the series reveals multiple ruptures
in popular understandings of the liberatory potential of the Potter series. Young
people who are progressive, liberal, and empowered to question authority may have
believed they were reading something radical as children and young teens, but increasingly
they have raised alarms about the series depiction of peoples of color, cultural appropriation
in worldbuilding, and the authors antitrans statements in the media.- ; Included essays
examine the failed wizarding justice system, the counterproductive portrayal of Nagini
as an Asian woman, the liberation of Dobby the elf, and more, adding meaningful contributions
to existing scholarship on the Harry Potter series. As we approach the twenty-fifth
anniversary of the publication of Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone, Harry Potter
and the Other provides a smorgasbord of insights into the way that race and difference
have shaped this story, its world, its author, and the generations who have come of
age during the era of the Wizarding World
