Haz Al-Din (born 1996) is an American live streamer and political commentator, activist, and theorist, known for serving as the founding chairman of the American Communist Party (ACP) and leading the Institute for a Free America think tank.[2][3] He co-founded the ACP in 2024 following a split in the Communist Party USA (CPUSA),[4] citing the CPUSA's support for the Democratic Party and alleged abandonment of Marxism–Leninism.[5] Beyond his role in the ACP, Al-Din is a showrunner of Infrared, a political streaming platform on which he advocates for Marxism–Leninism, populism, and consolidating working-class Donald Trump supporters into a communist movement.[6][7][8]
Al-Din's political work has drawn both support and criticism across ideological lines, with liberal and leftist commentators denouncing his rejection of identity politics,[who?] asserting his advocacy of class struggle through mass populism is often reactionary in nature.[9][better source needed]
