{"product_id":"organizing-for-sex-workers-rights-francine-tremblay-9781498593892","title":"Organizing for Sex Workers' Rights in Montréal: Resistance and Advocacy","description":"This book is based on a case study about Stella, l'amie de Maimie a Montréal sex workers' rights organization, founded by and for sex workers. It explores how a group of ostracized female-identified sex workers transformed themselves into a collective to promote the health and well-being of women working in the sex industry. Weighed down by the old and tenacious whore symbol, the sex workers at Stella had to find a way to navigate the criminality of sex work and sex workers, in order to do advocacy and support work, and create safer spaces for sex workers to engage in such advocacy. This book focuses on sex workers, but the advocacy challenges and strategies it outlines can also apply to the lives of other marginalized groups who are often ignored, pitied, or reviled, but who are seldom seen as fully human.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francine Tremblay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1498593895\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498593892\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/13\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Francine Tremblay","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48518680510719,"sku":"9781498593892","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f26c7a07-81ec-4c4c-86a9-d962bd7a2732.jpg?v=1778735227","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/organizing-for-sex-workers-rights-francine-tremblay-9781498593892","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
