AMAZING how police consistently make the most “mistakes” when the person they’re dealing with is Black yet they manage to apprehend white mass shooters without killing them time & time again.

Devastated. MD close to legalizing serial #sexualassault by police officers. #Sexworkers always 1st to be thrown under the bus, but this is HATEFUL. The anti-sex worker lobby silenced survivors & legitimize violence against us @PowerInsideBalt #MDGA21 #PoliceReform @baltimoresun

Outside my window now. It’s ridiculous that alcohol is legal and cannibis is not. I support HB32 for adult use legalization, with social justice provisions and expungement.

"Sexist racialized perceptions of Asian women, especially those engaged in vulnerable, low-wage work, Asian massage workers are harmed by the criminalization of sex work, regardless of whether they engage in it themselves." @RedCanarySong

We appreciate the overwhelming support we have gotten overnight, and understand that many people are looking to us in this moment. Please read our response on the 8 lives lost in Atlanta. Chinese and Korean translations of this statement are available docs.google.com/document/d/1_Q…

Now is the time (if you're able) to support orgs like: ❤️ @RedCanarySong - grassroots collective of Asian + migrant SWers ❤️ @aaopmn - org empowering AAPI youth ❤️ @QTPoC - mental health resources for queer & trans people of color ❤️ @AtlantaSwop - GA's SWOP chapter


Let's face it: The intersections of #misogyny, #racism & #criminalization of sex workers made the women targets of violence whether they were trading sex or not. It isn't the first targeted murder like this & it wont be the last. @1a @NPR #atlantaspa #intersectionality


"While it is not clear that these women were participating in erotic labor, the assailant made his intentions and beliefs about them explicit." @swopbehindbars

So here we are again...#sexworkers told the world that #sexworkiswork and that #sexworkisnotsextrafficking and that #fosta #sesta was going to be a disaster and that #handcuffareneverrescue and we are back to tell you why #nordicmodel #equalitymodel interventions are harmful.

Eight workers in massage parlors have been killed in Atlanta. This is horrific, and is indicative of the violence that massage workers face daily. We are saddened and angered to learn of this, and we are sending our love to the workers in Atlanta. cnn.com/2021/03/16/us/…

"It was a really bad day for him and this is what he did..." is a strange way for the Cherokee County Sheriff to describe the Atlanta gunman's murder spree. #gapol


How many murders would qualify as motivated by race and gender in your jurisdiction @CherokeeSO? #SheriffFrankReynolds

Sex addiction is not a thing. And if it was, it sure AF wouldn’t be a reason to murder women.



Power Inside reposted

Lack of #intersectionality kills: Six Asian women of eight murdered at massage parlor but @cherokeeso #SheriffFrankReynolds thinks "sex addiction" and not racial- & gender-hate is to blame.


Please pass #HB411 with NO amendments. Sexual misconduct violates civil rights. #SB43 is a step backward. States like FL don't make exceptions for on duty sex with suspects witnesses & victims #MDGA21 #MDPolitics @ShanekaHenso @JonCardin @guyton42b @marlonamprey @DelegateKaiser


Thank you for standing with survivors of police sexual misconduct. Please pass #HB411 with NO amendments. #SB43 assumes prior sex is current consent. If we excluded survivors now we'll never hear their voice. #MDGA21 #MDPolitics @VAtterbeary @EmilyShetty @WanikaFisher
