S** Work, Art, and Radical Humanity with Miss Mei #48

Miss Mei  (they/them) — co-founder and executive director of Decrim305 and a 14-year sex worker — joins co-hosts Mattie Bynum and Shawn Aaron to share the origin story of Miami’s most unapologetic sex worker advocacy org. Born out of the George Floyd protests in 2020, Decrim305 launched with a Slut Walk that nobody expected to pop — and it did. Mei traces the through-line from Josephine Baker and Marsha P. Johnson to the streets of Miami, making the case that sex workers have always been at the center of liberation movements. This episode is a love letter to the people who keep showing up, even when the community refuses to show up for them.
