Here’s a report (with video) discussing the recent May Day Protest in Calcutta where sex workers marched demanding the legalization of sex work.
The question of sex work is touchy in general, but amongst the Left and Feminists in particular. There are groups denouncing those who seek de-criminalization of sex work in the Bay Area due to the entanglement of human trafficking which they claim goes unchecked if sex work is decriminalized.
These Indian sex workers are demanding the right to be able to earn a legal wage in return for their work. If they were to get this, wouldn’t it represent a more accessible terrain for class struggle on their part?
