| Every great wizard in history has started out as nothing more than what we are now: students. If they can do it, why not us?" —Harry Potter
Dumbledore's Army, also known as the D.A., was a secret organisation originally founded by Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley to teach their fellow Hogwarts students proper Defence Against the Dark Arts in 1995. This organization was made necessary by the refusal of Dolores Umbridge, the subject's professor during theier 5th school year, to teach anything in her classes other than textbook theory. It was restarted by Neville Longbottom, Ginny Weasley, and Luna Lovegood during their 7th school year after Hogwarts fell under the control of Lord Voldemort in order to oppose Death Eater professors Amycus and Alecto Carrow, who spread propaganda against Muggles and Muggle-borns and taught the Dark Arts.
Dumbledore's Army played a vital role during the Second Wizarding War, and members of the organization fought in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, the Battle of the Astronomy Tower, and the Battle of Hogwarts. If you want to Join the D.A Fill this out;
