Race MattersMigrant Sex Workers of Colour: We Are Here To Take Space
We are very excited and honored to bring forward the first episode of Migrant S3x Workers of Colour, a series of intimate dialogues produced by Jasmine Raat Ki Raani
"The views, thoughts and opinions expressed in this audio series are by migrant sex workers of color who speak for themselves and not for the entire community. We do not take responsibility for how the audience perceives us or our stories because we are not here to please. We are a work in progress and our thoughts, views and opinions are subject to change. We do not intend to hurt anyone’s feelings, your feelings are your responsibility.
In India the s3x workers I met taught me that 'the first step towards revolution is the revolution of self-worth. That we can’t fight the world if we haven’t fought with ourselves. The only thing that matters to us is how we see ourselves.'
No longer are we going to wait for someone to pass us the mic. No longer are we waiting for someone to save us. No longer will we let anyone decide how our words should sound. We speak clearly. We affirm we are here to take space. We urge everyone from in and out the industry to listen to listen"
