In this episode, guest host Aureo Potts (@09aureo) joins Adri to talk about chapter 33 of OotP where Hermione leads Harry and Umbridge to the Forbidden Forest in a hair-brained scheme to get Umbridge off their back. While upon first encountering this chapter, we may not have thought about the implications of Centaurs having been given parcels of land to live on, this time, it hit us like a freight train. We talk about systemic racism and oppression, as well as the more specific problem of the displacement of indigenous people.
