Katie Leung Responds After
J.K. Rowling's Anti-Trans Controversy Rowling sparked outrage online after she reacted to an
article titled, 'Opinion: Creating a more equal post-
COVID-19 world for people who menstruate.' The 54-year-old writer defended
her comments on the social media
platform after being hit with criticism. She also insisted she
loves the trans community. J.K. Rowling, via Twitter Rowling also shared that she's researched
the issue over the "last three years." Leung, who starred as Cho Chang
in the 'Harry Potter' movies, was thrown into the mix after fans claimed Rowling
lazily named the only Asian character in the series. Leung proceeded to post four links to
support black trans people and ended
the thread with #AsiansForBlackLives.
