Caring about the lives, health and safety of SWs is an ESSENTIAL part of supporting the rights of LGBTQ+ people.

Come visit us any day in Pride month to see our exhibit in person, and pick up something from our recommended reading table!

A wide shot of The Scarlett Letter's exhibition corner, comprised of two large pinboards with photographs, captions, and pride flags pinned on. In front is a table with a selection of books and magazines on the theme of SW rights and LGBT+ pride.

While not a queer identity in and of itself, SW is a survival strategy for often the poorest and most marginalised. Due to structural discrimination, LGBTQ+ people are overrepresented within the sex worker community.

As part of their activism for trans people following Stonewall, Marsha P Johnson and Sylvia Rivera founded STAR (Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries), primarily catering to homeless queer youth who were very likely to be selling sx to meet their basic needs.
