Today was the first-ever, To Write Mudblood On Her Arm, day.
Worldwide, Harry Potter lovers and equality seekers sought solidarity by writing (in every possible variation) the word, Mudblood on their arms, their legs, their wrists, their hands...
Some 35,000 confirmed participants and probably thousands more that were pulled along in the wake of those eager to support Magical/Muggle equality, all decorated themselves and held the love of Harry Potter and the love of their fellow Mudblood/Muggles in their heart and on their arm, leg, wrist, etc.
The obvious play on the inspiring movement, To Write Love On Her Arm, is intentional, but in no way meant to be disrespectful. TWLOHA's mission is to inspire hope in those who suffer from depression, addiction and who might suffer from self-destructive tendencies and/or suicidal thoughts.
TWMOHA takes its cue from Hermione's mistreatment in the book series as a result of her Muggle(non-magical) birth. She is viewed as something less than other witches and wizards because she does not come from Pure-Blood. TWMOHA's mission is simple: Equality--- for everyone, no matter what....
Both have different missions, but both inspire the same thing--- HOPE.
And, there aren't enough days in the year to celebrate the amount of hope the world is in need of...
So, to a successful first--and I do hope not the last-- To Write Mudblood On Her Arm, the world has heard your cry and the world has answered !!!!
