J.K. Rowling continues open licence for teachers in response to the latest school closures
Teachers can continue to post videos of themselves reading aloud from J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter books, as well as her original fairy tale The Ickabog, to their students currently prevented from attending school again following the latest lockdown restrictions across the United Kingdom. This follows J.K. Rowling and her agents The Blair Partnership relaxing the usual copyright permissions required.
Teachers anywhere in the world who are having to teach remotely are permitted to post videos of themselves reading from Harry Potter books 1-7 and The Ickabog onto schools’ secure networks or closed educational platforms from today until 19th February 2021, at which point it will be reviewed. A full set of Guidelines for Teachers are downloadable here for The Ickabog and Harry Potter books 1-7.

and your still racist. what now your a grammar Nazi and an English major haha!
Kendall Onheiser wrote: "and your still racist. what now your a grammar Nazi and an English major haha!"I'm antiracist actually! I'll be the first to condemn J.K. Rowling for her actions, but when trying to make a point about how stupid someone sounds, you may want to use the correct form of 'you're'. Just a friendly suggestion.
(And it doesn't take an English major to know that. This is basic elementary stuff.)
Ms, Rowling,Thank you for bringing literacy alive for so many children and adults over these past 20 years. Those that read have an expanded view of the world and you have given so much more to ALL people than any one of your detractors could ever hope to give. Be strong and know you are loved.
Ms. Rowling... You are greatly admired. Your accomplishments are beyond what many could hope to achieve... We are grateful for you and wish you the best in whatever you do.
So sad to see transphobes in the comments. I'm happy for the teachers and students she's helping at least!

My friends think I am crazy because I love Harry Potter books but when I made them read the books, they loved it too!
My friend can not stop talking about Harry Potter. I also can't stop listening to them on audible, even though I have listened to the whole series like 20 times. I also have the whole set of books. They are so good! My favorite book is Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Trans women are women!Trans men are men!
