HP MEME: Nine Characters. [8/9]](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m991tibjkw1qd8inpo1_400.png)
Royal (Kingsley Shacklebolt): “We continue to hear truly inspirational stories of wizards and witches risking their own safety to protect Muggle friends and neighbours, often without the Muggles’ knowledge. I’d like to appeal to all our listeners to emulate their example, perhaps by casting a protective charm over any Muggle dwellings in your street. Many lives could be saved if such simple measures are taken.”
River (Lee Jordan): “And what would you say, Royal, to those listeners who reply that in these dangerous times, it should be ‘wizards first’?”
Royal (Kingsley Shacklebolt): “I’d say that it’s one short step from ‘wizards first’ to ‘pure-bloods first’, and then to ‘Death Eaters’. We’re all human, aren’t we? Every human life is worth the same, and worth saving.”

About
POTTER COLOURS is a blog for celebrating the characters of colour in JK Rowling’s ‘Harry Potter’ series and discussing racial issues in the canon and fandom. There may sometimes be posts about the actors of colour who starred in the films, but our focus is on fictional people of colour.
Fans of all races, ethnicities, and identities are welcome to follow us, but we ask that everyone be mindful of racism and other form of discrimination, especially if they are members of a privileged group. Be prepared to be called out on any discrimination, even if it’s unintended and seemingly innocuous. We aim to make this blog a safe space and will include trigger warnings whenever we can, but be warned that racism will be discussed here and we cannot control what people re-blog in the notes.
Submissions are CLOSED for now until we have a better idea of how we’re going to go about running this in the long-term. Additionally, if you are the owner of any images you would like to see removed, please send us an Ask and we will take care of it as soon as we can.
