History edit
Pre-World War II period edit
The origin of the Buraku Liberation League is the National Levelers Association (全国水平社, Zenkoku Suiheisha), founded in 1922. However, in 1942, some of the leading activists, including Asada Zennosuke (朝田善之助), were recruited into the military. The National Levelers Association disbanded in the same year.
Post-World War II period edit
In 1946, the ex-members of the National Levelers Association formed the Buraku Liberation National Committee (部落解放全国委員会, Buraku Kaihō Zenkoku Iinkai). In 1955, it was renamed the Buraku Liberation League (BLL).
In 1966, one of the leaders, Jiichirō Matsumoto (松本治一郎, Matsumoto Jiichirō), died. Around the same time, the BLL purged the members who were against the leaders' decision that the subsidy to the burakumin should be limited to the BLL members only (as there are many burakumin who did not join the BLL). Asada played a major role in this purge. Thus, the ex-members of the BLL formed the Buraku Liberation League Normalization National Liaison Conference (部落解放同盟正常化全国連絡会議, Seijōkaren Buraku Kaihō Dōmei Seijōka Zenkoku Renraku Kaigi) in 1970. This was the predecessor of the All Japan Federation of Buraku Liberation Movement (全国部落解放運動連合会, Zenkairen Zenkoku Buraku Kaihō Undō Rengōkai).

In response to the denuclearization struggle "The reason for fear is not by birth, but because a powerful pressure group because of hanging up and condemnation. It has been said that self-purpose groups fear losing their meaning of existence by achieving their original purpose since late 1960s. "
Akira Koike, a politician and vice chair of the Japanese Communist Party, also said that "the Dowa problem has already been resolved basically by residents' endeavor, continuing unfair dowa measures itself will create new prejudice" and criticized the clamor. He clarified that such criticism is regarded as "discrimination" is a complete wrong after suppression of free speech by Minister of Reconstruction Ryu Matsumoto concurrently serving as a vice chairperson of Buraku Liberation League.
He criticized Matsumoto's intimidating warning, "Your company is over if you write my words as the essence of the liberation alliance's suppression of free speech."[1][2]
