The writer Ellen about summed up a stormy discussion, worked out in social networks about the Asian actress for the role of Nagayna, a couple of tweets:
"It's fine - love problem things. I will say that I wanted to start writing children's books thanks to Harry Potter. But let's talk about problems, because it is a problem. This is a problem when white wants more ethnic diversity, but at the same time they do not ask how to do it, representatives of different ethnic groups themselves. They do not see the link between the casting of the Asian actress on the role of Nagayna and the fact that this heroine becomes a pet white man's pet. So I will say it out loud: it's d *** mo - racism. "
For accusations in Rasyism, Joan Rowling, who explained the choice of Asian actress for the role of Nagayna, was quickly reacted.
"Nagi - snipe-like mythological creatures in Indonesian mythology. Sometimes they are depicted with welbs, sometimes semi-milestones. In Indonesia, several hundred ethnic groups, including Javanese, Chinese and Betavi. Have a nice day!"
