Context: Kōtoku Shūsui was a Japanese journalist and activist who started out as a socialist but shifted toward radical anarcho-syndicalism after reading Kropotkin while in prison.

Context: Sholem Schwarzbard was born in modern-day Moldova and initially served in the French Foreign Legion before joining the Red Guards during the Russian Revolution. In 1926, he killed Symon Petliura in Paris as revenge for the horrific pogroms Petliura’s forces committed against Jews in Ukraine, leading to a high-profile 1927 trial where he was ultimately acquitted.

Context: Yi Hoeyŏng was a Korean independence activist who basically gave up everything to fight the Japanese occupation through anarchism. After fleeing into exile in China, he eventually moved away from mainstream nationalism and became a pioneer of the Korean anarchist movement. He was the driving force behind the Korean Anarchist Federation in China and pushed for a post-independence society based on local autonomous communities and self-management rather than a centralised government. Even in the face of constant danger, he stayed committed to the idea that true liberation required an anarchist framework, eventually dying in Japanese custody while trying to coordinate more militant resistance in Manchuria.
