So there was a lot to like about the movie, but, NGL, it was whiter than a mayo sandwich on a porcelain plate full of rice. And, charming as Redmayne is, I still would INFINITELY rather have seen a Black British Newt (maybe Nathan Stewart Jarret), both because REPRESENTATION MATTERS GODDAMMIT and because it would just have made for much richer and more interesting storytelling - especially with segregation being one of the movie's themes.

So: go crazy, Nonny. How would Newt's experiences have been different in Muggle New York if he were black?

Or, best of all, racebend the whole damn movie, so Picquery is the only white character outside of the Wizengamot.

Or anywhere in between - maybe Jacob's from Mumbai? Maybe the Goldstein sisters are Korean? IDK, Nonny, just for the love of God, give me some melanin. Gen, het, slash, whatevs.
