Sometimes, things work like this:
school closings → homelessness → human trafficking
#COVID19 [Thread]
Folks like @CovenantHouse and others have researched & well documented the link between homelessness & human trafficking. covenanthouse.org/homeless-issue…
Much like folks who claim they hate abortion — yet refuse to fund and promote #SexEd, #birthcontrol , etc. — we can't stop the spread of #Covid_19 unless we also support a safety net that includes #PaidSickLeave, #MedicareForAll, mortgage & student loan relief, etc.
Btw, yes, I'm 100% anti human trafficking — as we all should be. I'm also 100% in support of sex worker rights.
Sex work is work and all workers deserve rights. As I've said many times before, if we can understand the difference between sex & rape, surely we can understand the difference between sex work & human trafficking.
