In this episode, Hannah is joined by author and activist Stacey Clare, who is a retired stripper, and co-founding member of the East London Strippers Collective. Stacey talks about the ethics of sex work with first hand insight into why harm reduction for strippers needs to be at the heart of that conversation, and why she named her book The Ethical Stripper. Stacey explains how strippers have long had misclassified professional statuses, how sex workers’ rights are part of a broader workers’ rights movement, and why Stacey founded the East London Strippers Collective. Hannah and Stacey also talk about Sex Worker Exclusionary Radical Feminists and their contradictory and unhelpful arguments, and discuss what is actually needed to support sex workers in the industry.✨MORE ABOUT STACEY CLARE✨Stacey Clare is a retired stripper, writer, theatre performer, activist and co-founding member of the East London Strippers Collective (ELSC).
