It's important to note that while Harry Potter author JK Rowling is not directly involved with the creation of these Harry Potter Lego sets, she financially benefits from merchandise sales. Harry Potter remains a popular franchise, but Rowling's hateful, anti-trans views and funding for anti-trans legislation have tarnished the series in recent years. GameSpot's article on how Rowling's comments have impacted the trans community offers more information on her history of anti-trans bigotry. You will also find links to trans creators whom we encourage you to support, as well as helpful resources and charitable organizations to which you can donate.
