In 1902, Oka Shigeki immigrated to America,[3] where he became head of the San Francisco branch of the Heimin-sha (Society of Commoners). He helped Kotoku Shusui make contact with American socialists, and anarchists during his stay in America.[4] Before Kotoku returned to Japan, Oka gave advice to Kotoku on how to start a revolution in Japan.[5]
