MONTREAL—Aylo’s Community Panel Series returns for its third installment on February 10 at 3 p.m. ET, in collaboration with Sex Workers Outreach Project (SWOP) Behind Bars, a national social justice organization advocating for the rights of sex workers, trafficking survivors and those impacted by incarceration.
The panel will examine how de-platforming across banks, payment processors and social media platforms impacts access to income, visibility and digital infrastructure for sex workers, creators and advocacy organizations.
Those interested in attending the online panel can register, free of charge, at Eventbrite.
The panel, "Banned and Blocked: Defending the Rights of Creators On and Offline,” will bring together sex worker advocates and creators “to share firsthand experiences with de-banking [and] social media de-platforming. The discussion will also explore practical advocacy and resilience strategies. We’ll cover legal and policy responses, alternative platforms, and ways to build community strength,” a description reads.
Panelists include:
The panel will be co-hosted by Blair Hopkins, executive director of SWOP Behind Bars, and Alex Kekesi, Aylo’s VP of Brand and Community.
