When I dare to be powerful": On the Road to a Sexual Rights Movement in East Africa

Download PDF

This publication breaks the silence regarding women's sexuality. Governments, women's rights activists and other social movements, often fail to understand the connection between sex work, forced early marriage, land rights, poverty, education, property and inheritance rights. We need to understand the politics behind sexuality, sexual rights and sex work because the liberation of all women, the equitable distribution of power and resources, and the ability to control our own bodies are indeed critical to our feminist agenda. This breakthrough work is in line with AMW's core mandates of creating space for African Women to SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. It allows sex workers to speak for themselves; claim their spaces and share their stories. When I Dare to Be Powerful redefines African sex workers; giving the power back to them and their struggles.
