Weeks 11-12: Sex Work in the U.S. and elsewhere

Submitted by Anne Dalke on Fri, 11/13/2009 - 4:03pm

We turn now from Felice Picano's description of his work as a "smut peddler" to a consideration of sex work in the U.S. and elsewhere. Viewed through the lens Kamala Kempadoo offers in her essay on "Women of Color and the Global Sex Trade," what are your reactions to the two films we are viewing and discussing on this topic: Kauffman and Briski's Born into Brothels , and Query and Funari's Live Nude Girls Unite! ? In what ways do they converge, in what ways diverge, in your thinking about the various dimensions involved in sex work?
