SUMMARY:Scarlet Alliance and Red Canary Song present Fly In Power
DESCRIPTION:Scarlet Alliance\, Australian Sex Workers Association the peer-run peak body of sex workers and sex workers organisations formed in 1989; and Red Canary Song (RCS)\, a grassroots organization of Asian and Migrant sex workers and massage workers based in North America and organizing transnationally\, are proud to present the Australian premier of Fly In Power\, with a panel of Asian migrant sex workers from the Scarlet Alliance Asian Migrant Sex Worker Advisory Group (AMSWAG) presenting afterwards. We will also be joined by Xen Nhà\, the producer of Fly In Power\, who will speak before the screening about the development of the film. \nThis event is open to sex workers\, family\, friends\, allies and supporters. RSVP essential. \n6pm to 6.30pm Arrival and dinner provided \n6.30pm to 8pm Film screening with introduction by Xen Nhà \n8pm to 9pm Panel presentation by AMSWAG \n9pm to 10pm Drinks and socialising \nTickets are by by donation – pay what you can\, with all money raised going to AMSWAG to support their advocacy. If you can’t make it\, you can still donate here. \nThai\, Chinese\, Korean and English translations will be available [format to be advised – some may be in flyer handouts]. \nThe panel will be Auslan interpreted. \n\nAbout the Scarlet Alliance Asian Migrant Sex Worker Advisory Group (AMSWAG) \nAMSWAG members include Asian migrant sex worker peer educators who field human rights\, housing and immigration questions from Asian migrant sex workers every day\, make referrals to legal advice\, offer court support and assistance during crisis\, organise social events and conduct outreach\, all in sex workers’ preferred languages. Members are also individual Asian migrant sex workers\, current and former\, whose life experience sparks ongoing concern about sex worker human rights\, legal issues and anti-trafficking policies in Australia. \nDespite receiving no funding since 2018\, AMSWAG regularly brings crucial expertise and leadership to inform Scarlet Alliance’s strategic decisions and policy\, speak to media\, attend conferences\, apply for funding\, lobby politicians and promote sex worker pride. \nThe lack of funding for AMSWAG is a key problem for Asian migrant sex worker health\, safety and human rights in Australia. As one member of stated\, ‘you can’t expect lots of eggs without healthy chickens.’  The ongoing AMSWAG fundraiser injects much needed funds to keep the group meeting. \nAbout Fly in Power \nCo-directed by Yoon Grace Ra and Yin Q\, Fly in Power follows Charlotte\, a Korean massage worker and core organizer of Red Canary Song (RCS): a social justice collective of Asian diasporic massage workers\, sex workers and allies who basebuild through mutual aid. Through her story\, we learn how the incarceration system is pitted against Asian migrant women and their survival. Other RCS members\, including Khokhoi\, a young body worker\, and Prof Elena Shih\, Brown University\, share powerful insights that debunk the myths of sex trafficking. Fly in Power is a glimpse into the intimate spaces that not only connect these workers\, but is also a testament to the global advocacy of women’s rights to work and thrive. This is the first film to center the narrative of an Asian massage worker in her own words\, with her own agency of storytelling and editing. The intention of Fly in Power is to honor their practices of care\, autonomy\, and survival and to raise awareness of the oppressive systems that face us all. \n*This film has been produced entirely by women\, non-binary\, trans and queers of the Asian diaspora – more than half of the production team are former sex workers. \n**The production of this film has been generously supported by donations from our community and grants from Asian Womens Giving Circle and NYWFT. \n———- \nFly in Power กำกับโดย Yoon Grace Ra และ Yin Q นำเสนอเรื่องราวของ Charlotte พนักงานนวดชาวเกาหลีและเธอยังเป็นผู้จัดงานหลักของ Red Canary Song (RCS) ซึ่งเป็นกลุ่มบุคคลเพื่อความยุติธรรมในสังคมของพนักงานนวดชาวเอเชียที่โยกย้ายมายังอเมริกา คนทำงานบริการ และพันธมิตรที่ร่วมสร้างความแข็งแกร่งด้วยการช่วยเหลือซึ่งกันและกัน จากเรื่องราวของเธอเราได้เรียนรู้ว่าระบบการจับกุมคุมขังนั้นถูกใช้เป็นอาวุธต่อต้านผู้หญิงอพยพชาวเอเชียและความอยู่รอดของพวกเธอ สมาชิก RCS คนอื่น ๆ รวมถึง Khokhoi พนักงานนวดวัยสาวและศาสตราจารย์ Elena Shih จากมหาวิทยาลัย Brown ได้แบ่งปันข้อมูลเชิงลึกอันทรงพลังที่หักล้างความเชื่อผิด ๆ ของการค้ามนุษย์ทางเพศ Fly in Power เป็นการเผยให้เห็นพื้นที่ส่วนตัวที่ไม่เพียงแต่เชื่อมโยงบุคคลเหล่านี้เข้าด้วยกันเท่านั้น แต่ยังเป็นเครื่องพิสูจน์ถึงการสนับสนุนสิทธิสตรีระดับโลกให้เป็นรูปร่างและประสบผลสำเร็จอีกด้วย นี่เป็นภาพยนตร์เรื่องแรกที่เน้นการเล่าเรื่องของพนักงานนวดชาวเอเชียด้วยคำพูดของเธอเอง พร้อมกับการเล่าเรื่องและตัดต่อด้วยตัวเธอเอง เจตจำนงของ Fly in Power คือการให้เกียรติแก่แนวปฏิบัติในการดูแลกัน การเป็นตัวของตัวเองและการอยู่รอดของพวกเขา มากไปกว่านั้นยังสร้างความตระหนักรู้เกี่ยวกับระบบแห่งการกดขี่ที่เราทุกคนต้องเผชิญ \n*ภาพยนตร์เรื่องนี้ผลิตโดยผู้หญิง นอน-ไบนารี่ ทรานส์ และเควียร์ชาวเอเชียที่โยกย้ายมายังอเมริกา โดยทีมงานสร้างมากกว่าครึ่งหนึ่งเป็นอดีตคนทำงานบริการ \n**การผลิตภาพยนตร์เรื่องนี้ได้รับความเอื้อเฟื้อสนับสนุนจากการบริจาคจากชุมชนของเราและเงินช่วยเหลือจาก Asian Womens Giving Circle และ NYWFT \n———- \n《傲然飞翔》由Yoon Grace Ra和Yin Q联合导演，这部纪录片伴随着韩裔按摩工作者夏洛特，她也是红莺歌核心组织者之一。这个由亚裔移民按摩工、性工作者和盟友组成的社会正义组织，通过互助工作试图发展集体的力量。通过夏洛特的故事，我们了解到监禁制度（包括警察、监狱、法庭和移民局等）如何压迫亚裔移民女性并威胁其生存。影片中红莺歌其他成员，如年轻的身体工作者 Khokhoi 和布朗大学教授 Elena Shih，也揭穿对性工作和人口贩运的常见有害迷思。《傲然飞翔》不仅瞥见女性工人共同创建的亲密空间，还作证世界女工为争取其生存和发展的权力拼命的斗争 。 《傲然飞翔》是第一部拍摄一名亚裔按摩工用自己的话说自己的故事的电影、夏洛特也参加了剪辑和制作过程。《傲然飞翔》旨在致敬于所有为生存，互助，和维权拼命的按摩工和性工作者，同时也要提高观众对于我们所有人面临的压迫制度。 \n*电影制作团队均为女性、非二元性别、跨性别者或同性恋的亚裔人，团队大多数人曾经从事性工作。 \n**特别鸣谢我们社区的所有捐赠者和志愿者，以及 Asian Womens Giving Circle 和 NYWFT 的慷慨支持。 \n———- \n윤 그레이스 나(Yoon Grace Ra)와 인 큐(Yin Q)가 공동 감독한 <힘찬 비상>은 한인 마사지 노동자이자 풀뿌리 공동체 레드카나리송의 주요 멤버인 샬롯의 이야기를 따라갑니다. 그녀의 이야기를 통해 우리는 미국의 수감제도가 아시아 이주 여성의 삶과 생존에 미치는 악영향을 배우게 됩니다. 동시에 청년 마사지 노동자 코코이 (Khokhoi)\, 브라운대학교 교수 엘레나 시 (Elena Shih) 를 비롯한 레드카나리송 멤버들은 인신매매를 둘러싼 허황된 주장들을 폭로하고 통찰력있게 비판합니다. <힘찬 비상>은 아시아 이주여성의 친밀한 공동체의 모습을 기록할 뿐만 아니라 그들의 연대하고 번영할 권리를 옹호하는 전세계적 사회운동의 양상을 보여줍니다. 본 다큐멘터리는 세계 최초로 아시아 이주 마사지 노동자가 본인의 이야기를 자신의 언어로 직접 전달하는 작품입니다. <힘찬 비상>은 돌봄\, 주체성\, 생존을 실천하는 아시아 이주 마사지 노동자와 성노동자들에게 영광을 돌리고\, 우리 삶에 밀접하게 연관되어 있는 사회의 억압적 구조를 알리려는 의도로 제작되었습니다. \n*본 다큐멘터리는 전적으로 아시아 디아스포라 여성\, 젠더퀴어\, 트랜스젠더\, 퀴어 여성들에 의해 제작되었으며\, 제작진의 절반 이상이 성노동자 출신입니다. \n**본 영화는 개인후원자자\, Asian Womens Giving Circle\, NYWFT의 지원을 통해 제작되었습니다.

SUMMARY:National Forum 2023
DESCRIPTION:On this page: About this year’s National Forum | Agenda \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Registrations for the 2023 Scarlet Alliance National Forum have now closed. \nThe Scarlet Alliance National Forum is the annual national sex worker only conference. It provides an opportunity for sex workers to network\, workshop\, and make our voices heard. The National Forum is free for sex workers to attend and includes morning tea\, lunch and afternoon tea. You can read more about what the National Forum is here. \nThis year the Scarlet Alliance Annual General Meeting (AGM) is open to all attendees\, including sex workers who aren’t members. However\, only members have speaking and voting rights at the AGM. \nCurrent and former sex workers who support Scarlet Alliance’s objectives are welcome\, and attendees are required to follow our Safer Spaces policy. \nThis year the National Forum will be held on Gadigal land (Sydney) near the CBD. We only release full venue details to people who have registered and had their registration verified. We verify all registrations to ensure that attendance is sex worker only. This means that if you are not already known to us\, we ask for information to confirm that you are a current or former sex worker\, and may reach out to you for more information. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				No online access this year\n				After reviewing the feedback from last year’s National Forum\, the low takeup of the online access\, and having researched the available venue options\, we have made the decision to not offer live online access to the 2023 National Forum. The interactive nature of many workshops and presentations\, combined with the lack of technical capacity in the venues we are able to use\, means that we are unable to offer an appropriate hybrid event. Feedback on our hybrid access last year was clear that the online platform was not accessible\, and did not allow for participation within the conference. A fully accessible hybrid event is currently beyond our staffing and financial capabilities. \nInstead we will be seeking to record relevant sections of the National Forum and upload them to a member’s only section of the website. \nMembers unable to attend the AGM in person are still able to participate through electronic voting\, and/or by nominating a proxy. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				COVID-19 information\n				COVID-19 is still circulating in the community and can have devastating impacts to our communities\, particularly those with pre-existing and/or chronic health conditions. \nWe ask that people who have tested positive for COVID-19 in the last seven days\, have been in close contact to anyone who has tested positive\, or if you have cold or flu-like symptoms\, to not attend the National Forum. \nWe will be providing N95 masks (or similar) for attendees to use\, but mask use is not mandatory. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Venue layout and accessibility information\n				This year’s venue is a large multi-use space that will have different areas set aside for different uses\, including a balcony. It has moveable partitions that will allow us to configure the space and hold concurrent workshops\, however this means that noise will be an issue. We encourage people with audio sensitives to bring earplugs and/or noise cancelling headphones; and for attendees to be mindful of their impact on others. \nThere are 2 single person soundproof booths that will be for use by people who need to utilise supports (such as a phone counsellor). There are also cafes and a park nearby for people who need a “time out” from the conference space. \nSWOP NSW is also located a 700m walk from the conference venue and will have a quiet space and peer workers available for support. \nThere are two lifts to the venue that will allow people with mobility needs to access the conference\, and the space is wheelchair accessible with accessible toilets onsite. \nWe will provide a floor plan and full venue information to confirmed registrants. If you need further venue information in order to determine if you are able to attend\, please contact us at info@scarletalliance.org.au. \n			\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Day 1: Wednesday 8 November\n				11.00-11:30amRegistration and morning tea \n\n11:30-12:00pmWelcome to Country \n\n12:00-12:35pmWelcome and Housekeeping \n\n12:35-1:35pmReports from WA\, QLD\, NT and TAS\, and Q&A \n\n1:35-2:35pmLunch \n\n2:35-3:35pmConsent Law Reform – steps to consensus \n\n3:35-4pmAfternoon Tea \n\n4-5pmWorkshops \n\nThe digital wallet 101: Skillshare on deposits & banking options\nBuilding Worker Cooperatives with Sex Workers\nInterrupting criminalisation\n\n\n5-5:15pmDay Wrap Up \n\n6-9pmFly in Power Film Screening and panel at the Red Rattler \nPlease note this event is open to the public and requires registration. \n			\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Day 2: Thursday 9 November\n				10-10:30am\nNational Training Project Skillshare \n\n10:30-12:00pm\nWorkshops \n\nJoys of Resistance: A Skillshare for Anti-Fascist Whores and Antifa-Curious Sex Workers\nBest Practice Approaches for Peer Organisation Ugly Mug Lists\nTricking Tricks: more from the Sick Sad Whores\n\n\n12-12:30pm\nMorning tea \n\n12:30-1:30pm\nReports from NSW\, ACT\, SA and VIC\, and Q&A \n\n1:30-2:30pm\nLunch \n\n2:30-3:30pm\nWorkshops \n\nPreserving whorestories: Forming a community sex work archive\nDisabled Sex Workers Roundtable\n\n\n3:30-4pm\nAfternoon Tea \n\n4:00-5.15pm\nWorkshops \n\nGrief work\nMaintaining Community Values and Refuting the NGO Industrial Complex\n\n\n5.15-5.25pm\nReport from Touching Base \n\n5.25-5.40pm\nDay Wrap Up \n\n7pm-midnight\nSex worker only party at the Bearded Tit in Redfern \nIncludes the annual Whore Of The Year awards and performances at 8pm\n			\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Day 3: Friday 10 November\n				10-11am\nPeer supervisors network \nPlease note this is being held at a separate location in Newtown\, venue in info kit. \n\n11-12pm\nPublic rally \nSex workers and allies\, being held at the Hub in Newtown. \n\n12:30-1pm\nNational Training Program Graduation \n\n1-2pm\nLunch \n\n2-3pm \nWorkshops: \n1.
