If only JKRowling’s net worth was donated to dozens of Black Trans funds right now.
The ignorance continues to hop out today and every day, so hold tight as we turn this story about J.K. Rowling’s net worth into a teachable moment. Maybe you saw the Harry Potter author’s name trending recently after she tweeted some transphobic comments . And maybe you’re curious how she’s still making all that dough in spite of it.
“I’m sure there used to be a word for those people. Someone help me out,” Rowling tweeted, referencing women. “Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud?” While Rowling tried to, uh, defend herself, Harry Potter critics continued to weigh in on social media about some of Rowling’s other problematic topics—namely, her poor representation of Black characters and other people of color. “Cho Chang” was up for discussion.
