J.K. Rowling Beautifully Pays Tribute To Pulse Nightclub Victims

She's among many to contribute to a new anthology.

J.K. Rowling is one of many different creatives who have contributed to a new anthology that pays tribute to the victims of the Pulse Nightclub massacre.

Love is Love,” available on Dec. 28, is 144 pages in length and reportedly includes submissions from the Harry Potter author, actor Matt Bomer and comedian Patton Oswalt, among many others.

Rowling contributed to the anthology with a popular quote that the openly gay character, Albus Dumbledore, said in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire that hits on themes of acceptance and tolerance. It reads, “Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open.”

Rowling’s quote is paired with an image of Harry and his friends drawn by Jim Lee, a co-publisher of DC Comics.

The Pulse Nightclub massacre was the worst mass shooting in modern history, having occurred on June 12, 2016 and leaving 49 queer people and allies, mostly of color, dead.

The “Love is Love” anthology will be available for purchase on Dec. 28.
