In Harry Potter and the
Order of the Phoenix, Harry returns for his fifth year of study at
Hogwarts and discovers that much of the wizarding community is in
denial about the teenager's recent encounter with the evil Lord
Voldemort, preferring to turn a blind eye to the news that Voldemort
has returned. Fearing that Hogwarts' venerable Headmaster, Albus
Dumbledore, is lying about Voldemort's return in order to undermine his
power and take his job, the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge,
appoints a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher to keep watch over
Dumbledore and the Hogwarts students. But Professor Dolores Umbridge's
Ministry-approved course of defensive magic leaves the young wizards
woefully unprepared to defend themselves against the dark forces
threatening them and the entire wizarding community, so at the
prompting of his friends Hermione and Ron, Harry takes matters into his
own hands. Meeting secretly with a small group of students who name
themselves "Dumbledore's Army," Harry teaches them how to defend
themselves against the Dark Arts, preparing the courageous young
wizards for the extraordinary battle that lies ahead.
