This is a private initiative. I post news & #research on #humantrafficking with an interdisciplinary, critical & #humanrights perspective. Also @TraffikNews_de
New intersectional activism toolkit for sex workers and allies from @sexworkeurope https://t.co/Ba5CsUCqDB Infographics in English, French, Greek, Romanian, Russian and Spanish #IWD2018
I've enacted a referendum on my generally forgiving approach to celebs as several are supporting #SESTA, a Senate bill that threatens the livelihoods and lives of vulnerable people in the sex trades. PLEASE read up and CALL YOUR SENATOR. https://t.co/EGm480usJ8
Good evening @amyschumer, I'm calling in reference to your rally cry to "Listen to Survivors" with regards to #SESTA. I want to tell you that I used many tools to survive the sex trades and not one was a hashtag, a cop, or a disingenuous hack comedian dressed as a sister wife.
I wrote about how #SESTA will absolutely decimate access to safety info, community, and safe working conditions that I myself used to get out of danger during sex work and the hypocrisy of celebs who endorse it https://t.co/ZWWiWZrWjJ
Almost daily, we see news about another merger or corporate consolidation. What’s the impact on working people? Fewer opportunities to change jobs and lower wages. https://t.co/exftBRgvNT #1u

Criminalisation and discrimination against sex workers reduces sex workers' capacity to organise to improve sex workers’ health and safety https://t.co/XkIqy7w3tN #ISWRD
Today, on International #SexWork-er Rights Day, we reaffirm our solidarity with the sex worker rights movement and we stress the importance of organising as a way to deal with injustice, violence, exploitation and #HumanTrafficking in the industry https://t.co/mj5r5wCjvc #ISWRD
Self-organising provides a space for women marginalised by existing movements, such as #SexWork-ers, to craft interventions that will make their lives more equitable https://t.co/QP5fA874O7 #ISWRD
“The Department of Justice agrees. The DoJ sent a last-minute letter to lawmakers early this week saying FOSTA-SESTA is probably unconstitutional and will make finding and prosecuting sex traffickers more difficult.” @ACLU https://t.co/sLOekqYkg8
This legislation would criminalize any online solicitation or exchange of information on sex work; shutting down invaluable resources for sex workers that keep them safe. Sign this petition to tell the U.S. Senate not to pass FOSTA/SESTA. https://t.co/ePpWWfq9nd
Raids intended to ‘rescue’ victims of #HumanTrafficking rarely identify any but can actually end up forcing women to start with #SexWork. New report https://t.co/QP5fA7Ptpx #RightsNotRescue
