YES. Yes this is exactly how I see the wizarding world in HP. There is no looking outward in it. *LOVES*

Bookmarker's Notes
She tucks a few bright red curls behind the curve of her green ear. The skin there is slightly darker, a mossy shade. On Orion, there are thirty-seven different words for green, each one a slightly different hue, with a slightly different connotation. None of them are associated with anything negative, rather, they reflect a cultural appreciation for the sensual: green in broad daylight, green under a starlit sky, green in the flickering shadows cast by a lover's lamp. Green that invites a touch, a taste, the color of the skin on the back of someone's neck, behind the curve of the knee.
I am black but comely, Uhura thinks. O, ye daughters of Jerusalem.
Excellent Uhura & Gaila & world-building & history.

Aaaaaah, Sam! Tracy! TOMMY! I love you all! Also the opening amazes me:
"Tommy is named after Thomas Edison and somebody his father never met, a boy who drowned before Tommy was born. He was Sam Clay's first cousin, from Czechoslovakia, and he died in the war, or just before the war began, the day before Pearl Harbor was bombed. He was thirteen years old. Tommy is ten, but he can count backward, and it occurs to him that this was the month after he, Tommy, was conceived.
He is not convinced that this is the whole story, because there's a third Thomas, one his old man knows better than anyone else. The Escapist."

Summary
Beauty grew up in a box. He divided himself. How could he know who he was, unless he undid the wrapping? / Beauty is a black, gay, magic using (but not abusing) man with a texture fetish and a knack for roses. Beast doesn't quite know what to think (but he kind of likes it). Mom is mom and therefore awesome.
