Revolting Prostitutes: The Fight for Sex Workers' Rights by Molly Smith, Juno Mac

challenging informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

I learnt so much from this book, and in spite of the complexity and depth of information, it explains the most basic concepts of sex worker rights and justice so it made me feel like I could finally articulate those views myself when asked. In particular the chapter on Borders is invaluable and so important the way it discusses trafficking. While some of the content is unavoidably grim and dispiriting, there are call to arms throughout and I particularly appreciated the Susan Sontag quote at the beginning of the concluding chapter - it is good to be reminded how important it is to keep fighting even when it feels futile.
