Vem daterade Kanno Sugako?

Kanno Sugako (Japanska: 管野　須賀子), även kallad Kanno Suga, född 1881 i Osaka, död 25 januari 1911, var en japansk journalist och anarkafeminist. Hon avrättades genom garrottering 1911, anklagad för att vara del av en konspiration som skulle mörda kejsare Meiji.

Hon var den enda kvinnan bland de dömda och den första kvinnliga politiska fången som avrättades i Japan i modern tid.

Kanno Suga använde många olika pseudonymer när hon skrev, men hennes vänner ska ha kallat henne Suga. ”Kanno Sugako” är en variant av hennes riktiga namn.

Kōtoku Denjirō (幸徳 傳次郎; November 5, 1871 – January 24, 1911), better known by the pen name Kōtoku Shūsui (Japanese: 幸徳 秋水; Japanese pronunciation: [koːtokɯ ɕɯːsɯi]), was a Japanese socialist and anarchist who played a leading role in introducing anarchism to Japan in the early 20th century. Historian John Crump described him as "the most famous socialist in Japan".

He was a prominent figure in radical politics in Japan, opposing the Russo-Japanese War by founding the Heimin-sha group and its associated newspaper, Heimin Shinbun. Due to disregard for state press laws, the newspaper ceased publication in January 1905, and Kōtoku served five months in prison from February to July 1905. He subsequently left for the United States, spending November 1905 until June 1906 largely in California, and he came into contact with other prominent anarchist figures such as Peter Kropotkin.

Upon his return, he contributed to a divide within the left-wing movement between moderate social democrats and the more radical advocates of direct action, the latter of whom he supported. The growth of the 'direct action' faction led to the banning of the Japan Socialist Party in February 1907, and is arguably the beginning of Japan's modern anarchist movement. He was one of the 12 accused who were executed for treason by the Japanese government in the High Treason Incident in 1911, under suspicion of involvement in a bomb plot to assassinate the Japanese Emperor Meiji.
