"The revolution is finally here!": sex work and strategic sex -- "Those few came on like gangbusters": prostitution and sisterhood -- "My ass is mine!": call off your old tired ethics -- "Resisting the virus of repression": disease vectors and sexual experts -- "Assembly-line orgasms": organizing the sex market -- "Fuck the pigs!": public sex and police violence -- Sluts unite!: disrupting whorephobia and slut-shaming.;Documenting five decades of sex-worker activism, Sex Workers Unite is a fresh history that places prostitutes, hustlers, escorts, call girls, strippers, and porn stars in the center of America's major civil rights struggles. Although their presence has largely been ignored and obscured, in this provocative history Melinda Chateauvert recasts sex workers as savvy political organizers - not as helpless victims in need of rescue.
