On this episode of Women on the Line, we head to the Pride In Protest conference ‘Provocations’, which was held on Gadigal Land earlier this month. On International Whore’s Day, June 2nd, Asian migrant sex workers, Damien, Bee and NaMon spoke at the ‘Asian Migrants Sex Workers against the Border Force, racism and deportation!’ panel. Today we hear a portion of the conversation with Bee and NaMon speaking about the anti-immigration and anti-sex worker operation called ‘Project Inglenook’; the pros and cons of Decriminalization; and the harms of anti-trafficking laws on the migrant worker community in ‘so-called-australia’.
Content warning: mild swearing, description of police raids and violence against sex workers.
