WH*RING ART: A RED LIGHT ANTHOLOGY What happens when SWorkers are in charge of their own image, labor laws, work places, and community spaces?
SWork everywhere is facing erasure from public life. In Amsterdam’s infamous Red Light District – De Wallen – the combined forces of gentrification, repression, hetero-cis sexism, and stigma are threatening its future. But SWers have risen up, reclaiming the unconstrained genius and militancy of whores as the key to social transformation.
This book brings together the voices of sworkers, queer and trans cultural workers, and Amsterdam’s squatting movement, to offer a radical vision of whoring liberated. Wh*ring Art: A Red Light Anthology is an abundant re-imagination of SW in the city.
Edited by HXSSY, a former Red Light-based queer SW-centered collective. Publishing with [@spookstad.boo](https://www.instagram.com/spookstad.boo/?hl=en)
