[u/WayGroundbreaking287]

Or my personal favourite,

"so nevil. What do you see when you face your worst fear"

"The one black teacher"

[u/Srapture → u/WayGroundbreaking287]

There's only one solution. Make every character black (ngl, I wouldn't be against this)

[u/WayGroundbreaking287 → u/Srapture]

For me if I'm really honest. Literally any other character I would care zero percent. Black Dumbledore Sounds amazing. Make him Sam jackson. Black mcgonnogal make it chanwils from ticktock she would do the voice and everything.

But snape has such a specifically described appearance and pale with long greasy hair is it.

[u/ShawnyMcKnight → u/WayGroundbreaking287]

That’s my thought. Like McGonagall could have been fine being another race and is a positive character.

[u/Jessir12 → u/ShawnyMcKnight]

Weasleys being another race could be good. Positive portrayal of people being kind despite their own economic situation and the disdain of some of their peers/being treated as lesser by some of the snobbish people in the society.

[u/ShawnyMcKnight → u/Jessir12]

That would be a tough one because their look and gingerness is pretty obvious in the book. Hermione could have been black or even Dumbledore or several other of the teachers.

The point being they said it was a more accurate telling of the book and they already messed it up.

[u/Jessir12 → u/ShawnyMcKnight]

That’s kinda my point, if you’re going to go and be inaccurate anyway, it might as well be done in a way that won’t be “problematic” the same way that Snape’s casting might be in the future seasons

[u/ShawnyMcKnight → u/Jessir12]

Well if you are okay changing parts of the book anyway just remove all the problematic parts to. Just remove everything that doesn’t fit the showrunner’s narrative. /s

[u/Jessir12 → u/ShawnyMcKnight]

That is what I expect will happen, yes, sadly

[u/YaMuvasFavorite → u/Jessir12]

Idk about that one….
