In book 3 it says hermione is white. She’s also white in all of the book covers. I have no problem with a black hermione but you can’t say that you never said that when you did

J.K Rowling's the only author I know of that's managed to fan-fiction her own work

Nobody: JK Rowling: *It iS nEvEr SpEcIfIeD tHaT HarRy PoTtEr iS MaLe*

why does Snape hate herbology? Because his Lilly died

Whether she says she's black or white, Emma Watson will always be the true Hermione Granger in my heart.

J.K. Rowling these days be like: Ginny had intense relationship with Nagini Snape and Voldemort are actually transgenders Ron was actually asian Dumbledore and Grindleward are actually sisters Harry's real name is actually Holly Hermione is actually a bisexual black woman Sirius real name is actually White Draco owns a gay bar Neville was actually an elf Edit: Prison Mike was Sirius cellmate

J.K. Rowling has revealed that you, the reader, was gay all along.

No one: J. K. Rowling: You, the reader, was actually in an intense sexual relationship with Dobby

Stop hating on hufflepuffs you guys, their common room is right next to the kitchens so in many ways it’s the best house.

no one: jk rowling: the sorting hat was into bdsm

nobody: rowling: luna and neville fangirled over k-pop all throughout the sixth book

Nobody JK Rowling: Ron is actually a butterfly that’s why he hates spiders

Why was it shocking that Teddy Lupin was a Hufflepuff? Tonks was.

RIGHT AFTER SHE SAID "#1 Dumbledore is Gay" I HEARD MY MOM YELL "WHAT" FROM THE OTHER ROOM IM DYING SHE DIDNT EVEN HEAR THAT

Her next tweet will be Happy Potter was just a dream of Harry nothing happened for real

NO ONE: JK ROWLING: Voldemort is a test tube baby

The first time I realized Snape could be a good guy was in the third movie when he stood infront of the trio to protect them against Lupin in his werewolf form

Point 3 is actually a mistake on Rowling's part. In at least three instances it is quite heavily implied, if not to say stated that Hermione is light-skinned and probably caucasian. 1) In "Prisoner of Azkaban", when Harry is reunited with Hermione, it is noted that Hermione visibly tanned over the summer, after her vacation in Southern France. This would imply that Hermione regular skintone is rather light, for it to be this noticable. 2) Again, in "Prisoner of Azkaban", we have the following allusion to a light skin colour for Hermione. In Chapter 21, Hermione's Secret, page 293, we find the following phrase: "Hermione's white face was sticking out from behind a tree." While this is a result of the fear and anxiety she is feeling at that moment in time, when phrased like this, it is easy to assume that her fear makes her look even paler than usual. Which in turn would mean, she is pale-skinned usually. 3) In "Half-Blooded Prince", Chapter 5, "An Excess of Phlegm", we find the heaviest implication that Hermione is in fact pale of skin: "But when Harry arrived downstairs ten minutes later, fully dressed and carrying his empty breakfast tray, it was to find Hermione sitting at the kitchen table in great agitation, while Mrs Weasley tried to lessen her resemblance to half a panda." Seeing how they were trying to cover up a black eye, and seeing what a panda looks like, such comparison only makes sense if Hermione is indeed white. Personally, I don't give a shit how the theater writer decided to cast her, I'm all for artistic freedom and freedom of interpretation and if Rowling would simply have stated that she has no problem with said casting, I wouldn't have even bothered giving it a second thought. But saying that the novels never alluded to Hermione's skin color is nonsense.

All of us: Dumbledore asked calmly JKR: *Dumbledore ask gayfully*

Ron and hermione were fantastic together IN THE BOOKS the movies ruined Rons character so badly I can understand why someone wouldn’t ship them if they never read the books

Actually Hermione is described several times as having white features, especially her eyes. And Rowling confirmed in the 90's Hermione looks like she does on the original covers (she's white on every cover). So yeah keep pushing the anti-white agenda, you're just proving your racism towards whites.

It’s not a shock that Teddy’s in Hufflepuff as his mother, Tonks, was in Hufflepuff too.

Harry Potter reveals that snape, the reader, is dating jk Rowling

"Hermione was in a wheelchair the whole time."

Nah Emma Watson is the best Hermione.

Let's pretend Cursed Child never happened.

ALTERNATE TITLE: *Top 10 Things J.K. Rowling has made up about Harry Potter to be inclusive and diverse.*

Harry: how dare you stand where he stand Snap:Dumbledore stood everywhere in this school what do you want me to do float

I think she makes it up when somebody asks

why would people only know that Voldemort and Harry are distant related because Rowling has told them after the books were already out? It´s said in the books that Voldemort was a distant relative of Cadmus Peverell and Harry of Ingotus Peverell. I find it more interesting that Harry is related to Salazar Slytherin.

No one: JK Rowling: *Hagrid secretly hooked up with Dobby*

Harry and Tom Riddle were descendants of Ignotus and Cadmus Peverell respectively. Hence they were distant blood relatives.

I don’t dislike black Hermoine but I grew up with a white Hermione so it was a bit strange..

I wouldn't like Harry and Hermione together. That would've been too typical cos he's the main character and Hermione the main female character it's likely that they end up together. But I am not a supporter of this cos Ron would have just been the funny unnessecary guy in the group and it would have just shown that only the main characters get the "jackpot".

Okay, dropping the “Voldemort” “T” now is just stupid. She had literally all this time to reveal it to them

"Spellbooks alone are very expensive." As a college student, I can relate.

I wasn't happy with a black Hermoine either, but because she was black but because we all grew up with a white Hermoine and now all the sudden she is black. The change didn't make sense

How is dumbledore being gay a huge thing?

It would’ve been cool if Harry became a professional quidditch player. I feel like that would’ve made him very happy.

You, a simpleton: black Hermione Me, an intellectual: Hrigga

Most people think writers have the entire book stuck in their head before writing it and then only have to put it on paper. Boy, they couldn't be more wrong.

If Hermione's skin color is never addressed in the books (honestly, I don't recall anyone having a designated skin color), why didn't they find someone of mixed heritage to play her...because it didn't come to matter until they cast a black actress to play her in the stage play. Why was Lavender Brown, who WAS a young black girl in the first two movies, suddenly transformed into a blonde, blue eyed, white girl for Ron's love interest? That is relevant in the context of the books/movies.

I support Black Hermione but she WAS specified as white

JK Rowling needs to stop! She is ruing the masterpiece she built for publicity!

That moment when you’re only on the second book and didn’t know Snape killed Dumbledore . . .

A- I like Hermione as an independent strong woman, but if I had to pair her with one it would be Ron. B- To be honest, I'd be okay with Arthur death if it means that Remus or Sirius would live, yes it would be sad for the Weasley' but they have a mother and each other, Harry has no one

J.K Rowling changing characters is literallly me deciding on what to eat

i think ron and hermoine were great together. proves that couples are a mirror of each other. got a bit of a hang with it when fortunately he adopted some of hermoine's clever thinking and hermoine on he's clumsyness at times. ✌✌✌😊😊

I love Snape’s character. I mean sure he did bad things and all but that’s what makes him great. It’s not like he’s perfect or anything though he’s the perfect mixture of hero and villain. That makes him stand out above all other characters. Plus his troubled past might have attributed towards his emotional resentment towards some characters but even with his flaws, he managed to be courageous and bold towards the end of the series. And sure he got jealous and angry sometimes and even leaned towards the dark path but he came back to do the right thing every time; his above mentioned qualities are some of the most common. His ordinary qualities are in fact the reason that he’s outstanding.

Minister FOR Magic *Gets Triggered

J.K. Rowling: Hermione's race was never specified Me: Lies!

Harry Potter was a wonderful series which made my childhood a lot magical, but all this extra unnecessary information Rowling is giving out now is just spoiling her own work. I dont want to know what happened with their kids, not interested in crimes of Grindelwald (tbh the fantastic beast series is very boring), not interested in knowing the sexual orientation and skin colour of any characters. For me Harry Potter ended at the seventh book itself. Now dont ruin our good memories Rowling !

I'm okay with Hermione being black, mixed, or whatever, but I hate how Rowling revealed it, like... 'well, I never said she was white ;)' -Yeah, you approved a lot of countries' cover art with a white Hermione. Just be okay with a black Hermione adaptation instead of playing coy with your intentions

Yeah Dumbledore being gay was crazy, I mean who would have thought, one of the most powerful wizards in the world and he’s gay....because sexual orientation is so relevant to his magical abilities * sarcasm

You know, I feel like JK thinks that she can make up things about the wizarding world just because she's written the series. Yes, I know this sentence seems kinda crazy, but everyone knows that Hermione is white. I have no problem with black people, if that's what u think, but JK Rowling wrote about Hermione's "pale skin" and also her "white skin" multiple times throughout the series, so saying that she never made any reference to her skin colour in novel is just bs. And pale and white skin can show that a character is afraid, but it also proves that Hermione Granger is WHITE. JK can't make everything up just so people think she's a really great person (which she naturally is, I'm sure). She can't rewrite what has been written. To have written so many wonderful books, I would have expected her to actually have given some thought into what information she gives us on the wonderful world that she created. And I'm not overreacting, guys, I just don't like when people lie (or do anything alike). I guess it's my zodiac sign's fault.....

Nobody: J.K Rowling: Peter Pettigrew was actually a femenist transgender furry

I feel bad. I'm A HUUUUUUGE Harry Potter fan, but I had NO idea Hermione becomes Minister of Magic...

Ron and Hermione remind of Arthur and Molly Weasley. Arthuf and Ron would be the fun parents anfñd less strict while Molly and Hermione would be the serious and strict parent but very caring

But she said Emma Watson was "The perfect Hermione."

Nobody: J.K Rowling: *VoLdEmOrT wAs AcTuAlLy BlAcK*

Honestly I don't think JKR has even read her own freaking books at least not recently. Hermione is very clearly pale-skinned with buckles and said over and over again. The only time her skin tone is mentioned as being Brown is after summer and friends with her family at which point she would probably have a skin tan just like any other Anglo-Saxon red-haired girl. I'm sure the actress who plays Hermione in the stage play is a lovely person but the simple fact of the matter is that this is a British book and there are very few people in the UK prior to to the year 1990 who would not have been a pale skin complexion. The primary influx populations were from India and other parts of the former Empire now I could see her one of these parents possibly being part Hindi a several of generations back on her having a perhaps more Asian looking face but her skin complexion would still be very pale. The books popularity in America and the racial b******* that happens over here as the reason JKR said that her mind wasn't necessarily White when her rice and freckles were clearly established to begin with.

1. Harry and Hermoine have no chemistry, particularly in the books, where Ron and Hermoines is so clear 2. Harry and Voldemort being related shouldn't have even been an honourable mention because Dumbledore specifies it in the book to Harry, so it's not something J.K. Rowling said after the books were out

"She kind if regrets romione." A lot of us, shaking: yo yo you d d d dont t t m EAN that

Everyone: "no one:" J.K. Rowling: Ginny had an intense sexual rape relationship with basilisk. That's why it was so evil.

If hermione is black why is she white in the most recent books (harry potter illustrated edition ). Movies and the books vs a stage play .

I dislike the fact that a black actress plays Hermione because she was played by a white actress in all of the Harry Potter. It just seems off

No one: Literally no one at all: Jk Rowling: Neville longbottom was transgender

"if harry potter taught us anything it that no one deserves to live in a closet" omg that is beautiful

I’m certainly biased (as you can guess from my profile picture xD), but imo Snape was simply the most human and _realistic_ character of the saga: he has plenty of flaws, which are compensated by some redeeming qualities; he can be petty and vindictive like Rowling said...but protecting someone whom you hate and despise (Harry) is much harder than protecting those you love.

Maybe J.K. Rowling didn't think she was specifying Hermione race, but I don't know a black girl, or biracial girl with light brown hair. I think fans believed that Hermione was black because she had big frizzy hair. I have white family members that have big frizzy hair, this kind of hair isn't specific to any one race of people. Blacks, whites, Asians, and Latinos can have big frizzy hair.

The new minster of magic Dobbie

And now Dumbledore and Grindelwald had intense sexual relations...oh, how low we have fallen

I don't know if Dumbledore being gay can be classed as 'crazy' tbh :/

JK may call the coupling of Ron & Hermione wish fulfillment...I call it an easy way to tie up loose ends. This way, the Golden Trio stays friends without weirdness between them. If Harry & Hermione ended up together (my personal choice) it would have left Ginny & Ron out in the cold and would most likely have affected their adult relationships.

Nobody : JK Rowling : Hogwarts is actually Gay Brothel

I really cannot accept it 1) Dumbledore not gay😑😑 2) Hermione not black(I'm not racist.I'm also black person😅😅) 3) What's wrong with relationship between Ron and Hermione?I think there's no problem.I really love their chemistry.😍😍 4) There's no need to get shocked about Teddy Lupin got sorted into Hufflepuff.Her mother was Hufflepuff 😒😒.I think Hufflepuff not bad.There have Cedric Diggory,Tonk and Newt(Main character in Fantastic beasts) This is not hate comment.This is just my opinion.😘😘

Gotta correct you here, Rowling did NOT write about all 11 schools. She wrote about some of them. Hermione could be mixed at most since her mother was in fact described as white.

Most of the people in Latin America talk Spanish and where did J.K Rowling decided to put the only school in Latin America to be? Brazil where they talk Portuguese.

Snape is like my favorite character. He was such a brave person! And sometimes I imagine if he would have been a father figure to Harry if he'd been sorted into Slytherin. Snape just didn't like Gryffindor.... And the fact that the son of the woman he loved looked like his childhood bully and only had her eyes( which by the way were supposed to be green!)

One of my friends said something that made everyone else’s minds explode because they apparently had never thought of this: Snape is either a bad guy who did good things or a good guy who did bad things, take your pick

How did I know that Dumbledore being gay would be the thumbnail?

Apparently when my favourite series is involved I'm the first to click play 💕💕💕

"She is a strong supporter of the LBGTQ community"...well that didnt age well

Absolutely no one: J.K. Rowling: Snape is actually black! XD

I love how when J.K tweeted Dumbledore dodie responded "then why did you murder him?"

Best friend: are you really still watching that Harry Potter stuff...after all this time?! Me: always.... (crying intensively)

I have a huge crush on Ron Weasley. Aggghhhh😏😍✨💐💞

J.K Rowling: I never wrote a series called Harry Potter, why do people keep asking me about magical wizards in such? I've only ever written a biography of my pet rock tinkles!

It's kind of hinted at that Dumbledore is Gay in the books, with his great admiration for Grindelwald

I understand some people, not me, discount the Cursed Child but can we agree on one thing. Its a book that reads like a Fanfiction.net or Wattpad fanfiction someone would write.

As much as I love the books and I'm thankful that JK wrote them, she literally just makes things up to try and stay relevant and be seen as "all-inclusive" It honestly never even crossed my mind whether Dumbledore was straight or gay.

But the Hermoine we know is white!!! 😯😯

Harry and Ginny belong together (bookwise, at least)

Dumbledore being gay is your number 1 revelation? Aren’t we past the point where Dumbledore’s sexuality should matter so much that it makes your #1 spot? I’m disappointed in you Ms Mojo!

I am really not sure why people have an issue with Ron and Hermione ending up together. They had chemistry from book one. They basically are the couple from every romcom ever- start out fighting like dogs and ending up together. Any potterhead would have seen that one coming. Plus had she put together harry and Hermione that would have been another great male-female friendship sacrificed on the alter of romance. Ron and Hermione were just never as great friends as Harry and Hermione were. And I am glad she did not ruin that. Plus Harry had a type- tiny and fiery. Both Cho and Ginny were like that. I thought JKR's initial intuitive take on these relationships is perfect. She should stop overthinking them.

7:33 I KNEW IT

Why did snape stand in the middle of the road So people wouldnt know what side he was on (This joke isnt original but i just wanna share it cause its funny)

About Hermione's skin color: I do remember in one of the books it said "her white face" or "Hermione's white face". This might've meant something else, though. She was probably scared or something. I don't really remember. Still, I've heard Noma Dumezweni has done an amazing job at playing Hermione. So no complaints here at all

I really like how this channel covers this in an unbiased way

I think defeating one of the greatest dark wizards of all time would count as the final project for graduation.
