"When Slack and his co-creators founded the Harry Potter Alliance in
2005, they were animated by the idea that J.K. Rowling’s novels,
inspired both by her own experiences with poverty and her work at
Amnesty International, could be a powerful source of moral precepts and
ideas about how to build a more just world."
