Queer/Sex/Work

A program of rarely- or never before-screened short videos by Canadian queer and trans sex worker activists, or interviews featuring them, from the 1970s-1990s. This program foregrounds queer and trans sex workers’ own voices, speaking candidly to one another about their experiences, or engaging with straight media to explode myths and bust stigma faced by sex workers. This program is presented by the “Sex Worker Self-Authoring in the Canadian Women’s Movement Archive” project at Carleton University in collaboration with Ottawa Independent Companions, C.O.R.A.S., and Maggie’s Toronto Sex Worker Action Project. The screening will be followed by a brief talkback with programmers and co-presenters.
