This fund raiser isn't even at 10%. Please spread this.

"Donate if you believe in the power of education. Donate if you believe in human rights. Donate if you are a friend. Donate if you are a social worker. Donate if you are a student. Donate if you believe that the ASU School of Social Work should never have participated in the arrest of one of its own students by Project ROSE. Donate if you support the rights of transgender women of color. Donate to defy the power of the prison industrial complex and to defeat the collateral consequences of arrest. Donate if you support sex worker rights. Donate if you believe in Monica Jones."

And this is what Project ROSE is:

"Twice a year, more than 100 police officers spend two days rounding up sex workers through street sweeps and online stings. Sex workers are handcuffed and taken to Bethany Bible Church. They are then assessed for eligibility to the "arrest-diversion" program. Anyone with previous arrests for prostitution or in possession of drugs at the time of arrest is ineligible. Eligible sex workers speak to a prosecutor who offers them the ultimatum of criminal charges and possible jail time or participation in a "rehabilitation" program run by Catholic Charities. They are denied the right to speak to a defense attorney."

*was! It's over with altho Phoenix remains a TERRIBLE place to be a sex worker, as does Tucson.

Also the rehab was essentially sweatshop labour making gift baskets, it wasn't actually learning useful and financially lucrative life skills lmao.

Donate to Monica who's had enough of her life ruined with this shit, she needs to get on with doing the great work she's meant to do.
