Wakamiya Masanori (若宮正則)

Japanese worker and early member of the Communist Alliance Red Army (共産主義者同盟赤軍派), better known as the Red Army Faction (Sekigun-ha / 赤軍派), which was a precursor of the Moaist Japanese Red Army (日本赤軍 Nihon Sekigun). After a period in prison, where he became one of the co-founders in 1974 of the Unification Prisoners' Union (統一獄中者組合), he embraced anarchism and became an activist in the Kamagasaki day labourers district in Ōsaka. He was later killed by Shining Path guerrillas in Peru.

In May 1986, he completed his 10-year prison sentence and was released from Kyoto Prison. In August of the same year, Wakamiya, who returned to Kamagasaki after greeting her relatives and returned home, opened a "Worker's Cafeteria" in August of the same year, with a former prison in prison who had been interacting with him through the activities of the prison war union, and a resident of Kamagasaki, who was called "Tomi-san" whom he had a father-in-law, as a collaborator. At the entrance of the shop, there was a black flag with Wakamiya's philosophy, one of the anarchists' proposition, 'mutual aid,' and the black flag was donated by the old anarchist Eizaburo Oshima. In October of the same year, he got a campa from his old friend, a former Red Army group of friends, and friends of the labor front, and bought a second-hand house near the dining room. The house is named "Worker's House" where workers can freely enter and leave, and they start to operate a self-managed space.

In order to maintain the dining hall and the workers' houses, Wakamiya made self-sacrifice, such as pouring money from physical labor, and other self-sacrifice, but various attempts in Kamagasaki yielded little of the planned results. I felt tired and deadlocked without the ideals coming to fruition. Wakamiya, who had begun to distance himself from the movement, left Kamagasaki in September of the same year, temporarily returned home and wandered around the country, and began to aim for a life in a rich natural environment. In the process, he began to explore a new life in South America. He took a job in Doya-cho, Kotobukicho, Yokohama, and on days when he was not working, he read literature on South America in the library, and enriched his knowledge by learning various aspects of South America. He saved money for travel and stay by day labor and moved to Peru in October 1990s. On November 14th of the same year, he was stabbed in the chest with a knife by guerrilla soldiers of the Maoist organization " Sendero Luminoso" (Shining Path) who were engaged in a fierce armed struggle in his land, and he was killed along with two Peruvians (the wife and his mother of the village chief who provided the accommodation) of the family where he stayed. 45 age .
