Harry Potter is a Racist[views:2610][posts:24]_____________________________________ [Jul 20,2005 12:55am - infoterror ""] HARRY POTTER: A 'Half-Blood Prince' Revealed Today, as millions of people rifle through freshly minted copies of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to discover the identity of this mysterious new character, I can't help but imagine this prince as biracial rather than "half-magic." "Half-breed" — akin to mongrel, mutt or half-caste — flies around as a jab at biracial people more often than "half-blood." In J.K. Rowling's world, half-blood means "half magic." But the term — reflecting a dichotomy between magic/powerful and mundane/helpless — implies a hierarchy. This "magic" hierarchy directly resembles racial hierarchies. http://www.tolerance.org/news/article_tol.jsp?id=1256 |

| __________________________________ [Jul 20,2005 2:04pm - succubus ""] nate, i think all he does is quote from that site.. |
| ______________________________ [Jul 20,2005 2:07pm - nate ""] so you mean he's wasting his life away memorizing and spewing forth propaganda and following a bunch of toothless, balding rednecks? |
| __________________________________ [Jul 20,2005 2:08pm - succubus ""] yep |

| __________________________________ [Jul 21,2005 8:24am - sinistas ""] ultimate dork here, I know, but it's very obvious from reading the book that "half-blood" does in fact refer to being a son of both a pure-blood wizard and an ordinary human. |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 21,2005 9:53am - nate nli ""] true but this cock knocker thinks there's some sort of underlying "racial" thing to do with it. It's a fuckin childrens book infomoron! Anything interesting on that site you steal these stories from everyday? Next you're gonna tell us the Jungle Book has stuff hidden between the lines too. Get a fuckin job and get off mommas teet loser! |
