Sistaz Hood fighting for transgender women sex workers

Eunice & Gulam

We closed off with an interview with Eunice April and Gulam Petersen - Coordinators for Sistaz Hood to tell us more about transgender women sex workers who are victims of hate crime. Sistaz Hood is a transgender sex workers support group hosted at SWEAT in Observatory. The group is one of the largest known organised gatherings of transgender people in South Africa on a regular basis as members also do advocacy work whereby they document the typical situations of the average black transgender woman of South Africa.
