Hajime Matsumoto (松本 哉 Matsumoto Hajime, born Oct. 17, 1974) is a Japanese activist, and a recycle shop owner. Matsumoto is perhaps best known as a founder of Hosei No Binbo Kusasa Wo Mamoru Kai (Association to Protect the Poverty of the Hosei University) 法政の貧乏くささを守る会 and Zennihon Binbou Gakusei Rengokai (Japan Poor Student Union). He spent about four months in jail for throwing paint on the president of his university and is now mainly active in Koenji, Tokyo. He was one of the main originators of the artistic and social activist collective Shiroto No Ran ("Amateur Riot"). He manifests his goal as creating a space where people can have fun without money.
