Chronicling the adventures of a young wizard, the “Harry Potter” book and movie franchise has become an integral part of Generation Z and millennial childhoods since the first book was published in 1997, having sold 500 million copies worldwide and being translated into 80 different languages. The cinematic adaptations of the books have been just as popular, bringing in over $8.5 billion at the box office worldwide. After 20 years, many die-hard Harry Potter fanatics have retained their obsession with the series and its characters. However, recent controversy surrounding author J.K. Rowling has led others to reflect more critically on the series and its creation. Art: Katie Wu
