Is it racist that there are no black characters in Harry Potter?

No, there are no major or even minor black characters. The black characters are basically extras. There weren't any in the early movies.

Did you try to quite something or link?
Can you name one of these characters? In the Harry Potter universe, black people barely exist and they occupy none of the important roles in society.

Yep. It's so racist it's shocking that it hasn't been banned.

If you think about it though. This would have been the perfect opportunity for a
magical negro
character. Toss in a magical tranny negro character, and you’ve done redeemed thyself, J.K.

I wish our Amerikan negro’s had English accents. At least then they would sound sophisticated when they’re mugging us.
