DESCRIPTION:voting yes on prop K would be a long over due social justice action to 
 protect the lives of consensual adult sex workers\nwho have made this city 
 great!  Imagine creating a sanctuary city where sex workers are protected 
 alongside undocumented workers, where sex work is given the same labor 
 protections as other forms of work.\n\nIs that offensive to you? 
 Shouldn’t we lead the way in ending\ncriminalization and state control of 
 our bodies?  Arresting and\njailing sex workers does nothing to help the 
 people involved access protection and resources that they need.\n\nDoes 
 Gavin Newsom have you convinced that every massage parlor is a den of 
 trafficked Asian sex slaves?  Did you know that there are many sex workers 
 of Asian descent that are not forced or kidnapped that are adversely 
 affected by this racist propaganda, and by raids of their workplaces in the 
 interest of rescuing them?  Did you know that Chinese prostitutes are part 
 of the rich legacy of San Francisco’s pioneers?\n\nLET’S TALK ABOUT 
 THIS and MORE AT the PROP K Q &A and Mariko Passion LEGAL 
 Fundraiser\n\nMARIKO PASSION, founder of the Los Angeles chapter of Sex 
 Workers Outreach Project is a San Francisco native artist and activist 
 formerly known as “the asianprincess.”  She was arrested in a routine, 
 expensive, overstaffed police sting in LA by a cop who solicited her 
 through her Craigslist ad.  Her lawyer David Bigeleisen is a San Francisco 
 native and firmly believes in the fight for decriminalization of 
 prostitution and abolishing the death penalty.\n\nDonations to help support 
 the costly and long battle of fighting for your rights can be expensive, 
 unless the community that supports the issue contributes.  All donations 
 are tax deductible.  A portion of the fundraiser will go towards supporting 
 PROP K.\n\nOCTOBER 18TH 5-10:30pm\n$25-$1000 suggested donation\nAr+space
