good, politicized, popular author looking for interviewees for her new book on sex workers' rights movement

A woman named Alison Bass, whom I met through my work in the mad movement (also known as the consumer/patient/survivor movement) is looking for sex worker interview subjects (who can retain their anonymity or not) for her new book on the sex workers' rights movement. She is a prize winning former Boston Globe journalist with a lot of mainstream pull, and her last book, _Side Effects_, on the fraudulence of the pharmaceutical industry, got good critical reviews and sold many copies.

Some dos and donts created by transgendered folks from strap-on.org for our fabulous transgender allies! Please help us spread the love!

3) politely correct others if they use the wrong pronoun.

4) treat me like you would any other person.

5) actively defend my rights.

6) offer me an escort to the bathroom if I'm getting… Continue

International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers Event Coming Up!

Every December 17th, sex workers across America and the globe join together to remember their fallen sisters and brothers... those who have been murdered in relation to their work in the sex industry. The Sex Worker Outreach Project has spearheaded this event each year, and whether it's a handful of people in a small town or a larger gathering, this day has become meaningful and powerful to each of us as a day of unity.

If your town doesn't already have a December 17th event, create one! Check out the SWOP site has many ideas and you can check out past events. This year, Arizona will host a national gathering at the site of the Perryville Prison where Marcia Powell, a sex worker serving 27 months for prostitution, died while left outside in a holding cage in the 107 degree heat. You are welcome to attend and free housing will be available.

Check back here for continuing updates and more details.

In Solidarity,
