We also heard from Ntokozo Yingwana - Advocacy
Officer for Sweat to tell us more about the Cape Town Sex Workers' Open
University seminar on Sex Work and Feminism that’s currently underway. A Cape
Town Sex Workers' Open University Seminar Sex Work and Feminism is hosted by
Sweat questioning “Is there room for sex work in feminism and is there room for
feminism in sex work? Can a sex worker call herself/himself a feminist? And
what do feminists have to say about that? The seminar entailed feminists and
sex workers unpacking these and more as the guest speakers included Dr Benita
Moolman - a feminist Researcher, Writer and Activist of the Human Sciences
Research Council, Shane Petzer - Sweat Co-founder, Oratile Moseki - Advocacy
Manager, Kholi Buthelezi - Sex worker feminist, and Sisonke National
