I'm
joined by the lovely and witty Jessica from the 3 Spooked Girls
podcast to talk about Chapter 21 of GoF through the lens of
uncertain freedom. We talk about many wizarding world-related
topics, including: What kinds of safety nets could be put in place
for House Elves that have been freed? What can Hermione do better
to make sure House Elves feel empowered? What parallels does this
narrative have to the emancipation of slaves? Are house elves
really happy, or is that just brainwashing at
work?
Here's
the article I reference to center our discussion:
Emancipation Evoked Mix of Emotions for Freed
Slaves.
On a
lighter note, we talk about how Jessica identifies with Neville,
how if you don't have a Ron in your friend group you are definitely
the Ron of your friend group, the Aunt Becky scandal and its
parallels to the Malfoy family, and much more.
