Photo of Gigi and Apricot. Apricot is wearing a full black latex suit and holding a chain that is attached to a collar Gigi is wearing. Gigi is wearing green high-waisted hot shorts and a green bra with black thigh high stockings and black and white heeled boots. Text reads: “I’ve been their loyal service puppy for about 5 years now. We began “dating”, snuggling, kissing, biting, and more after developing a close friendship and a deeper bond through private play. Our relationship is fluid and doesn’t require definition. I adore being Apricots puppy and being her friend, it’s an honor to share time and life with them.”

Photo of Row in a Yankees fitted, with a large silver septum piercing a black turtleneck, white blazer, white pants and black boots. Kim is holding hi shoulder with one hand and has the other on his waist. Kim is wearing a dark burgundy velvet dress with a thigh slit and a long black sweater. Text reads: meet Row and Kim
Photo of Row in a cowboy hat and leather. Kim is wearing a red latex dress with long latex gloves and black heels. Text reads: “I was already 25 minutes late to the panel when I rushed in the MOCA doors-the 5 always has a way of ruining your best laid plans in LA-but thankfully, everyone else was late that day too. This included you, I would later learn. But you'd never know it as you leisurely walked across the stage and rifled through that big ass Telfar bag.”
Text reads: “Spotting your black leather boots and deep cut shirt, "who the fuck is that?!" seemed to be the only thought I blurt out of my mouth. Frankly, if it wasn't for KD's response, "ohhhhhh ya, thaaaaat's Kim, she's SUPER hot!", my jaw might still be on the floor. Of course, with the start of the panel, not only were you hot, a sw, but you were a PhD student too?! There's no way! Not that I didn't know we could do it all, but I didn't know anyone in my circle personally. But there you were. So, I did what I do best. At the end of the panel, I said nothing---no slick "call me sometime"---I'm nothing like my work persona.”
Phot of Row flogging Kim. Kim is laying horizontally on a bench wearing an apricot colored dress while smiling with their head in their hands. Text reads: “But I did manage to make you laugh over some nervous joke about paying for your time. I thought I would never see you again. Yet, two years later that giggle still sends me back to that moment I was 25 minutes late and you were right on time.”
Meet Row and Kim!
There’s just something electric about sparks between sex worker.

Effective policy must be grounded in evidence, human rights, and the lived experiences of those most impacted. Protection should never come at the cost of autonomy. #sexworkvstrafficking

Photo of person packing a box with a Black Lives Matter sign on the wall behind them. Text reads: Black History Month. Gloria Lockett. Gloria Lockett, a pioneering Black sex worker and activist, founded both COYOTE (Call Off Your Old Tired Ethics) and CAL-PEP (California Prostitutes Education Project).
Photo of a person wearing a CAL-PEP t-shirt smiling sitting in a chair behind a table with resources and informational pamphlets on them. Text reads: Black History Month. Gloria Lockett. Making the astute observation that, after scapegoating gay men for transmitting HIV, the next target would be sex workers, Locket, created one of the first U.S. organizations to provide targeted HIV education, prevention, and outreach to SWers.
Photo of a food truck with people lined up in front of it. Text reads: Black History Month. Gloria Lockett. With no initial funding, and little help, Lockett persuaded the California Health Department to fund the development of HIV education materials for her local community- with a particular focus on Black people, trans women, and sex workers.
Photo of 2 CAL_PEP volunteers packing resource boxes in a room with an exposed brick wall. Text reads: Black History Month. Gloria Lockett. In its first year, the organization survived entirely on one $30,000 state health department grant. It’s budget has since grown to $2.2 million in revenue. Serving as Executive Director for 35 years, Locket retired in May 2019.
As we celebrate Black History Month, we honor the profound contributions of #BlackSWers and activists, acknowledging their role not just in the fight for racial justice, but in the ongoing fight for worker rights, safety, and dignity.

Today we mourn.
Tomorrow we fight for the living. for a world where trans joy isn’t radical.
#TransgenderDayofRemembrance
Today we remember our trans siblings whose lives were taken by hate and systemic neglect.
Black and Brown transfeminine sex workers are too often the first targeted, and the first forgotten.
Today we mourn.
Tomorrow we fight for the living. for a world where trans joy isn’t radical.
To every trans person taken too soon — We see you. We love you. We carry your legacy forward.
