The Seattle-based Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP) removed all mention of JK Rowling from their “Harry Potter” exhibit after calling her a “cold, heartless, joy-sucking entity,” according to a blog post that was posted in May.
Project manager Chris Moore, who is transgender, authored the piece and claimed that they would “love to go with the internet’s theory that these books were actually written without an author.”
“But this certain person is a bit too vocal with her super hateful and divisive views to be ignored,” continued the post. “For the time being, the curators decided to remove any of her artifacts from this gallery to reduce her impact.”
“It’s not a perfect solution, but it’s what we were able to do in the short-term while determining long-term practices.”
The Daily Mail has reported that MoPOP has kept the “Harry Potter” memorabilia on display, but Rowling’s name is not mentioned anywhere in the exhibit.
Moore’s post continues to point out other ways that Rowling, 58, has supported antisemitic creators and mentions that while writing “Potter,” the author included several racial stereotypes — such as the goblins of Gringotts, whose depiction has been compared to the Jewish community, or the fact that everyone in the books appeared to be white, as well as the lack of LGBTQ representation — and thus fostering a “super-chill outlook on the bigotry.”
“MoPOP is proud to support our employees and unequivocally stands with nonbinary and transgender communities,” the museum told The Telegraph. “In an increasingly divided world, pop culture can unite, inspire, and spark important conversations.”

Imagine being scrubbed from something that would never exist if it wasn’t for you.....
Awww yes. Removing the genitals of healthy young children, exposing them to pedos, and watching grown men twerk in front of children brings so much joy,
JK Rowling is an anti-Trumper who pandered to the alphabet crowd. Enjoy.
WOKE = Self righteous = unlikable
Rowling becomes an un-person. People who don’t wish to live in a totalitarian society will skip this exhibit.
So you would ban her too?
I wouldn’t ban her. I’d sell popcorn while the anti-Trumpers argue with one another.
The mindless sheep who get their info from NPR and CNN are told to hate him by the elite who know what he has on them and what he's gonna do to them.
The author of Harry Potter deleted from a Harry Potter exhibit because perverts are in charge.
George Orwell warned us about this sort of thing.
Thanks, Nimrata “Nikki Haley” Randhawa ...
Another fake “museum” designed to suck money from government “art” grants.
