[🔍 Search for the title, although it'll be towards the top for a while]> What happens when sex workers are in charge of their own image, labor laws, work places, and community spaces?
> Sex work everywhere is facing erasure from public life. In Amsterdam’s infamous Red Light District – De Wallen – the combined forces of gentrification, repression, hetero-cis sexism, and stigma are threatening its future. But sex workers have risen up, reclaiming the unconstrained genius and militancy of whores as the key to social transformation.
> This book brings together the voices of sex workers, queer and trans cultural workers, and Amsterdam’s squatting movement, to offer a radical vision of whoring liberated. Whoring Art: A Red Light Anthology is an abundant reimagination of sex work in the city.
> Edited by HXSSY, a former Red Light-based queer sex worker-centered collective led by Mercy St. J, Adanya Dunn, and Anna Torres.

I think this one speaks for itself. ^~
Amsterdam's Red Light District gets talked about far and wide (often with a fair amount if poison) 'cept by those actually working there. As usual for sex work.
The book is just published — literally release date was three days ago, the website hasn't updated the “preorder” label yet even — so I can't add any sort of review, but I can confidently advance this is a much-needed reframing~

The ladies of the night and their windows, captured on a spring evening: yes, what they say about Amsterdam is true, all of it. Now, I'd recommend a girlfriend experience outside De Wallen, but for the more bold at heart..."Give Me a Red Light"...

For #TravelThursday and from our visit to Alaska last year this is the famous Creek Street in Ketchikan. City laws banning brothels from the centre saw this part of Ketchikan flourish as its red light district during the first half of the twentieth century. These days it's a gloriously garish tourist trap.

Les Amies de Place Blanche
In 1959, Swedish born photographer Christer Strömholm moved to the Parisian neighborhood of Pigalle, a red light district, where he befriended the trans community that had gathered there. The laws at the time punished landlords who allowed prostitutes to work on their premise with the forfeiture of their property. These women had little chance at a day job since the name on their ID card did not match their appearance. As a result they took to the streets at night ... and Strömholm joined them. His book was originally published in 1983.
