OMGz cultural appropriation guys how inconsiderate of her! I know if there was a Native American author she would never write anything (potentially inaccurate) about Western culture. Never!

WE NEED TO STAND UP FOR COLORED PEOPLE WHO DONT KNOW BETTER

people of other races would obviously be better off they would just let white people do all the thinking for them, because we would FORCE EQUALITY

o wait

The Dr. (and the article only cites this one doctor's criticism) who is criticizing Rowling is just looking for press to promote her work. Clever.

Sorry, I didn't mean to say they should be upset over this particular issue, don't be so QUICK to overly EMPHASIZE through CAPITALIZATION.

As long as native Americans don't speak about Europeans or Christians generally then I am fine with their sensitivity to being generalized...

She's doing a several part story about the history of wizarding in the USA.
It's all leading up to a new "Harry Potter" movie. "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".

She's releasing a new portion of the story daily (weekly?) for the next little while on her Pottermore website.

Need a link?

She's British. It shouldn't be a problem. They only started the genocide. The rest is all the Canada/US and Mexico's fault by not putting a stop to it.
