On this episode of Women on the Line we are covering International Whore’s Day, which was on Friday 2 June. This year’s theme was ‘Access to Justice’. Scarlett Alliance, held a webinar featuring national and international speakers addressing issues faced by migrant workers and calling for improved immigration policies in ‘so-called-Australia’ and globally. We hear how anti-trafficking laws and media portrayals further harm migrant sex workers, especially asian migrant sex workers. Speakers include: Mish Pony (CEO of Scarlett Alliance), Bee – a bilingual peer educator at Vixen, Mon from Scarlett Alliance's Asian Migrant Sex Workers’ Advisory Group, and Anna Pickering from the Tamaki Makaurau New Zealand Prostitutes Collective.
