LONDON —  In the upcoming Harry Potter play,  a casting switch up has people talking. According to The Huffington Post, an upcoming casting in Harry Potter And The Cursed Child has outraged Potter fans (and white people, everywhere).

People are furious that the newly minted Hermoine Granger, is, indeed now black.  Rowling, made the casting announcement in December but only recently has the brouhaha boiled over.
