Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the fifth novel in the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling. Hogwarts has a new teacher, the evil Dolores Umbridge. She attempts to undermine Dumbledore and denigrate Harry Potter while denying that Voldemort is back. Harry joins a secret order called the Order of the Phoenix to fight Voldemort. Other people featured are Sirius Black (his godfather), Dumbledore, Arthur and Molly Weaseley, and Severus Snape.

A film version of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, directed by David Yates, was released in 2007.[1]

Forewarning of Faucism/cult of personalities

In the film, the crude Professor Umbridge at one point retorts to Professor McGonagall:[2]

...but to question my practices is to question the Ministry, and by extension, the Minister himself.

This forewarned of arrogant bureaucrats in the real world who would declare themselves the embodiment of truth and unquestionable authority, evident in Anthony Fauci's bizarre declaration that "attacks on me, quite frankly, are attacks on science."[3]
