J.K. Rowling Removed From Pop Culture Museum for Transphobia

The Big Picture J.K. Rowling was once at the top of her game until she shared her transphobic views and hateful comments on the internet time and time again. Rowling–who is famous for writing the Harry Potter series–through a series of blog posts, tweets, and more, has shown that she has no plans to stop spreading hate towards the trans community. So the Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle, Washington has decided that their Harry Potter display does not have to include the creator of the franchise.

Project manager Chris Moore is transgender and uses the pronouns he/they. They are the Exhibitions Project Manager at MoPOP. Moore, in a blog post, talked about the decision to remove Rowling from the display and how Rowling's views has made them an "ex-fanatic" of the series. A mood that many former fans of the Boy Who Lived understand very well.

Rowling's Tarnished Legacy The reality is that Rowling's books provided a haven for so many and then she unceremoniously ripped it from us all with her horrendous views and her hate filled rants about the trans community. Her constantly tweets and mentions of how much she dislikes the trans community has made it so that many former fans of the franchise don't want to engage with it at all.
