Launch of Luttes XXX: inspirations du mouvement des travailleuses du sexe
A new anthology by Les éditions du Remue-ménage (http://www.editions-rm.ca/) on the sex workers rights movment will be launched in Montreal on November 10th 2011. Co-editied by Maria Nengeh Mensah, Claire Thiboutot and Louise Toupin, this book reproduces and presents the various forms of resistance that have inspired sex workers around the world to mobilize and demand social recognition.
Luttes XXX includes 85 texts, a large number of which are available for the first time in French, and more than fifty illustrations. These are grouped into eight sites of resistance: “organizing”, “working”, “feminisms”, “telling our story”, “decriminalization”, “fighting against HIV\AIDS”, “migration issues” and “cultural representation.”
