Prejudice in Harry Potter's World: A Social Critique of the Series, Using Alport's The Nature of Prejudice by Karen A. Brown
If you are interested in the different prejudices found within the Harry Potter series, this book should be the first one on your list. And that's for a completely reason than reflecting the title. It is full of information on a multitude of prejudicial issues; not just information, but cunning and intellectually curious ideas based on this information.
Brown explores several topics including
Nature of Wizarding World Prejudice
House-elves
Squibs
Werewolves
"Mud-blood"
Inherited prejudices from parents
Harry
It's well written and a very good source for this information. I highly recommend it.
