مجید افشاری، ۴۲ ساله، یکی از معترضانی بود که در جریان جنبشهای مردمی ایران جان خود را از دست داد. او در شامگاه ۱۹ دی ۱۴۰۴ در یزدانشهر نجفآباد، واقع در استان اصفهان، هدف شلیک نیروهای امنیتی قرار گرفت و کشته شد. جزئیات جان باختن او نشاندهنده برخوردی خشونتآمیز است؛ ماموران حکومتی ابتدا از پشت به پای او شلیک کردند و پس از آنکه وی بر اثر جراحت به زمین افتاد، با شلیک دو گلوله دیگر به بدن و قلبش، او را به قتل رساندند. نام مجید افشاری در میان همراهان و فعالان به عنوان «جاویدنام» ثبت شده است. یاد او به عنوان یکی از جانباختگان راه آزادی که در جریان وقایع موسوم به انقلاب شیر و خورشید جان خود را فدا کرد، گرامی داشته میشود.
