Two days in a row with something that has problematic stuff, not the song, not the artist, but what’s its based on.
I love Harry Potter, but I detest the author and frankly there are a ton of problematic issues with the books themselves from the anti-Semitism of the goblin bankers to the dreadful way characters from ethnic minorities are portrayed.
But this song is good, Hank Green is a fantastic podcaster, musician and science communicator with a passion for science that benefits the environment, his stuff is really well worth checking out, as he is an amazingly passionate creator.
But I have to make this point, trans rights are human rights, and JK Rowling is the queen of TERFs and the Harry Potter fanbase deserves better than her.
Instead of buying official Harry Potter merchandise, donate to Trans charities, buy knock offs or read some amazing fan fiction instead.
