Episode 33: Rory Fleming: Sex Work versus Sex Trafficking (do you know the difference?)
from The Social Exchange · host Zach Rhoads
What is the difference between sex work and human sex trafficking? Today's guest, Rory Fleming, says this distinction is not always clear; it is MUCH clearer, however, than many politicians (and media) will admit. Rory Fleming is attorney and founder of Foglight Strategies, a legal consulting firm. He is also on the Families For Sensible Drug Policy advisory board and a writer for FilterMag. Today he explains why blurring the line between sex work and sex trafficking-- while sometimes done unwittingly-- is often a conscious and dishonest political tactic for which disadvantaged communities often pay the price. ********** CHECK OUT PRODUCER AARON FERGUSON'S ORIGINAL MUSIC HERE ****** Become a Patron http://patreon.com/thesocialexchange Visit our audible link--- download a free audio book and support the show! http://audibletrial.com/socialexchange Listen on iTunes (and leave us a review!) https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/t... ****** Thanks to our new patrons - Christopher Hanlon - André Pampel - CARTER Vermont - Rick Barnett - Anne M.
