Having only recently recovered from the news that Dumbledore is gay, we've now stumbled upon yet another bombshell regarding a prominent wizard's membership in a frequently persecuted, Hollywood-running minority—for Harry Potter, it turns out, is Jewish:

Daniel Radcliffe, who has captivated moviegoers as the bespectacled schoolboy wizard in the Harry Potter films, has donated the first pair of glasses he wore as a child to an exhibition marking the horrors of the Holocaust. [...]

The 18-year-old Radcliffe, whose mother is Jewish, sent the oval, gray metal-framed pair of glasses he wore as a 6-year-old.

Suddenly, the Potter legend takes on an entirely new level of metaphorical significance—a supernatural coming-of-age story about an outsider who longs for the company of his magical Jewish friends at YM-YWHA sleepaway camp while he lives out the rest of the year in misery surrounded by thickheaded Muggoyim.
