Description: BUST OUT YOUR YEARBOOKS!! It's time for the best and worst of the Purebloods! In this episode of Critical Magic Theory, we wrap up our epic 14-month journey through the world of pure bloods. We explore what it truly means to be a pureblood in the Wizarding World—unpacking the social constructs, privileges, and pressures that shape their identities. From the tension between external validation and unapologetic individuality to the insidious nature of pure blood supremacy, we dive deep into how these characters are socialized, perceived, and ultimately remembered.Huge thanks to our Patreon Deep Divers—Carlisa, Carrie, Hannah, Aisling, Hannah L, and Ika—your support means the world!Now, buckle up, because this one’s a wild ride!
