Yeah, kind of disappointing. :(

I also found this tumblr post that lists out all the POC from all the HP canons, specifying which are speculation and which are non-book canon. Apparently Gwenog Jones (who is mentioned in the books but no lines) has been depicted as a black women in illustrations. And Kendra Dumbledore reminds Harry of Native Americans apparently when he sees her picture, so potentially her? Though, again, not a large character, and I don't know what the exact line is.

ETA: Okay, found it, in DH: "The mother, Kendra, had jet-black hair pulled into a high bun. Her face had a carved quality about it. Harry thought of photos of Native Americans he'd seen as he studied her dark eyes, high cheekbones, and straight nose, formally composed above a high-necked silk gown."
