| Description |
Squibs gather in favour of Squib Rights, but the march is interrupted by Pure-blood riots. |
The Squib Rights marches were an action by a mass group of Squibs in favour of the betterment of the rights of Squibs[1] that most likely took place during Nobby Leach's term as Minister for Magic, from 1962 to 1968.[2] This demonstration was, presumably, unsuccessful, as a group of extremist Pure-bloods broke out in riot while it was taking place.[1]
Behind the Scenes
Edit
- The Squib Rights marches would have coincided with the American Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s. Although unconfirmed, this is likely not coincidental.
Appearances

Notes and references

- ↑ Although unconfirmed, this is the most likely answer to the 6-4 question of the Third W.O.M.B.A.T.; Squib Rights marches and pure-blood riots (supremacy) fit with the timeframe of Leach's term (the turbulent 1960s).
