Azar Majedi (Persian: آذر ماجدی) is an Iranian communist activist, writer,[1] chairperson of the Organization for Women's Liberation[citation needed] and one of the leaders of the Worker-Communist Party of Iran. She has opposed the current regime ruling Iran since returning from her education abroad to oppose the regime in 1978,[citation needed] a movement she has described as 'just'.[citation needed]
Majedi was born in Iran to an atheist father and a Muslim mother.[citation needed]
Majedi describes herself as a Marxist and Worker-communist.[citation needed] An atheist from the age of 12,[citation needed] she has described Islam as "a very misogynist ideology".[2] In another interview Majedi expressed the view that although racism towards Muslims is ripe and natural, 'Islamophobia' is "an invented concept trying to silence the world to criticize Islam or Islamic movement".[3]
Majedi was married to Mansoor Hekmat. Together they have three children.[4]
