from humpdays · host humpdays
The new Harry Potter series has cast Paapa Essiedu as Severus Snape, and the internet is buzzing! While we love diverse casting, could race-swapping this particular character be a misstep? Snape's backstory includes being bullied and coming from a disadvantaged background – traits that, unfortunately, align with harmful stereotypes.
