DESCRIPTION:Guest speaker: Niki Adams, English Collective of Prostitutes.  Also, 
 Alexandra Berliner, Legal Services for Prisoners with Children; Rachel 
 West, US PROStitutes Collective\n\nSpeakers will address:\n•        How 
 UK sex workers won against mass raids and closures instigated by police and 
 property developers attempting to take over the historic red-light district 
 of Soho, central London, England. This is a crucial victory for the SF Bay 
 Area to know about, as many of us face speculators, evictions and 
 gentrification.\n\n•         The impact on sex workers’ safety of the 
 recent FBI closure of Redbook, an online advertising venue. \n\n•         
 The ground breaking victory winning compensation for rape for sex workers 
 who were previously excluded from the California Victim Compensation 
 Program.\n\n•         A challenge by formerly incarcerated people (FIPs) 
 to end discrimination in compensation for rape and domestic violence, 
 problems with the compensation program including the system of restitution. 
 Many sex workers are FIPs and vice versa.\n\n•         A successful 
 campaign against increased criminalization of sex work: Bill SB 1388. 
 \n\n•         Stop the War on the Poor Campaign: how it strengthens our 
 struggle for survival and against criminalization. Next steps and how you 
 can be involved.\n\nCalled by: In Defense of Prostitute Women's Safety, a 
 project of US PROStitutes Collective and Legal Action for Women\nEndorsed 
 by: All of Us or None; California Coalition for Women Prisoners; Erotic 
 Service Providers Union; Legal Services for Prisoners with Children; Queer 
 Strike;  Global Women's Strike/Bay Area; Sin Barras\n\n
