Sex Work, Labor, Solidarity: Matilda Bickers Anarres Project
-
- Society & Culture
In this episode of Conversations on Anarres, we talk with Matilda Bickers, the co-editor of a new anthology, "Working It: Sex Workers on the Work of Sex" (PM Press, 2023), which is a collection of reflections by sex workers on the nature of their labor. She explains how she got into this form of advocacy and what similarities sex work has to other forms of labor under capitalism. Given those overlaps, we then discuss what it means for sex workers to struggle for their rights and how others can demonstrate solidarity with sex workers as part of a labor movement focused on the rights and dignity of all workers.
