While many believe there is an obvious lack of diversity in the Harry Potter films, Twitter has imagined a world where Hogwarts is predominantly black with the hashtag #BlackHogwarts. Suffice it to say, the responses are genius. From getting caught making Hennessy when you're supposed to be making Liquid Luck to having Barack Obama as the Minister of Magic and Snoop Dogg as the Professor of Herbology, these tweets are going to make you laugh about Hogwarts like never before. Even series author J.K. Rowling took note of the popular hashtag, responding to a fan that she was "seeing them and loving them" about the tweets. Check out some of the most spot-on responses to #BlackHogwarts and prepare to cackle.
