18. Press Conference: Call to End Prostitution Arrests in California

In California, a group of organizers recently held a virtual press conference urging California governor Gavin Newsom to stop all arrests for prostitution in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. The press conference was hosted by Maxine Doogan of the Erotic Service Providers Legal Education Research Project, Kristen DiAngelo of SWOP Sacramento, Rachel West of US PROStitues Collective, and Cesar Espinoza-Perez of Social Justice: Queer/Trans.  All In A Day's (Sex) Work is produced by Blair Hopkins and brought to you in part by SWOP-Behind Bars. Music by New Orleans’ own Johnny Sketch and the Dirty Notes. Special thanks as always to Alex Andrews and remember: All In A Day’s (Sex) Work is an ever-expanding narrative; if you are a sex worker, partner, patron, or other adult industry-adjacent person, I want to hear from you!
