Origin & history
Morikazu Numa, who had accompanied Japanese commissioners on their foreign trips in 1872, had observed the vigorous free speech enjoyed in the Western world and in 1873, with Togama Kono and his associates, he established the Horitsu Koshukai, or Institute of Jurisprudence, which was the predecessor organization of the Omeisha, at the home of the director of Shitaya Marishiten Temple in Tokyo. This organization was active in organizing speaking tours and debates. At first the Horitsu Koshukai didn’t attract audiences of more than 10 people, but because Numa persevered attendance increased.
