Sex Work & Feminism Lecture Skidmore College 3.17

In March 2017, Tina gave a lecture at Skidmore College in update New York, based on an article she wrote for Refinery 29. The lecture and the article were called “Why Sex Work Decriminalization Matters to Feminism.” In light of the national conversation about SESTA/FOSTA, Tina decided to release the audio she recorded of this lecture (not the best sound quality, but solid content, promise!). Touching on topics from pop culture representation to trans rights to violence to consent to class to public health to emotional labor to utopian visions, this lecture offers many useful talking points for explaining the connection between the things that matter to sex workers and the things that matter to feminists.
