TRIGGER WARNING: 56:15-56:35 -- there is discussion of sexual assault and terminology regarding sexual assault. This is the time stamp if you would like to skip it. 

Today's episode we've taken a break from our reading of Harry Potter and have two guests on to discuss where we see racism and injustice within the Potter series, relate it to our world today, and discuss how Harry Potter can be used as a tool to have these incredibly important discussions with our children, friends, and family members. 

THIS EPISODE IS NOT SPOILER FREE. 

Thank you to my guests @racheal_carrillo and @mus.moiz for helping me have this discussion.
