#DecrimMA

We are a grassroots coalition led by sex workers fighting for liberation on our own terms.

[#DecrimMA @decrimMAnow]

Today we launched our campaign to end state violence against sex workers in MA. We’re up against powerful lobbyists but we know that speaking truth to power is our only option for survival.

Also we are so thrilled you refer to us as sex workers. Hearing the language we choose for ourselves repeated back to us makes us feel so seen and deeply respected.

Thank YOU @JamieEldridgeMA. It was a marathon but we were so proud to be there telling our truth.

"end demand," the "equality model," or whatever else you want to call it is not a "compromise" toward SWs rights. It is a model that increases stigma and decreases our access to resources. It is absolutely in opposition to SWs health and safety

@svgwhitelotus @FabSocialist @gayliaronline @comradesanchez @endclasssociety Yes hello! Thank you for the shout out!

A deeply held cultural belief that sex workers are responsible for male violence against all women. YUP.

[Hacking//Hustling 🌅 @hackinghustling]

“Who asked for partial freedom? We are asking for full decrim as a means for full justice and liberation work.

If you are seeking freedom justice & liberation, align with sex workers who are seeking freedom justice and liberation.”

"The abolitionist perspective demands that we continue to struggle to dismantle interlocking systems of oppression in their entirely right, & continue to invest in the ongoing safety and love of the most marginalized folks in our communities." - Marika @hackinghustling

We’re here at the AAPI Rally for Our Lives event to support all of their demands, including decrim of sex work!
