Suuure, Hermione. Just become black. I mean....it's whatever you want, really. It's totally believable. What are these people thinking? Hermione is not black, she is white. You can't just snap your fingers like magic and make someone black when they are white. You can't just choose to be black like you can choose to be a doctor, or an actress, or a police officer. I mean, if you want to work for the NAACP, that's perfectly fine. If that's a cause you are passionate about, then by all means go work for them. But you can't live in a land of make believe and pretend to be a color that you're not.
