J. K. Rowling infuses the Harry Potter stories with many important human rights messages. In a short quiz (link below), RightsInfo blogger Natasha Holcroft-Emmess asks whether you can tell the difference between human rights language from the Harry Potter works and actual human rights documents or statements from human rights leaders around the world.
Here's the link to the quiz from the RightsInfo blog....
