✊🏽🧡💙 Let’s Talk About Decriminalisation!

As Asijiki members continue to push for the full decriminalisation of s*x work in South Africa, we must ask:

How long must s*x workers continue to fight for their basic human rights while their voices are ignored?

S*x workers deserve justice and equal protection under the law. Their rights cannot continue to wait.

S*x workers are tired of being judged by myths that erase their real lives ✋🏽
Stigma hurts them every day, decriminalisation is how we stop the harm ❤️‍✊🏽
Evidence can guide you

The Decriminalisation Bill was withdrawn in 2023 and has taken nearly three years to return to the process. During this time, s*x workers have continued to face violence, stigma, exploitation and discrimination.

We welcome the movement back to Parliament, but let’s be clear: this delay has had a real human cost. How many more years must s*x workers wait for justice?

No more delays. No more excuses. Decriminalise s*x work now!

SWEAT and Asijiki Coalition welcome some progress by government

📢A convicted killer walks free on parole. A s*x worker remains dead.

Nokuphila Kumalo will never get a second chance. Her family will never get her back. Yet the man convicted of brutally taking her life has been released after serving part of his sentence.

What message does this send?

That the life of a s*x worker is worth less?
That violence against s*x workers is something society can simply move on from?
For s*x workers across South Africa, this is not just another parole decision. It is a painful reminder that our lives continue to be treated as disposable.

We are angry. We are heartbroken and we refuse to be silent.

Nokuphila was a human being. She deserved safety. She deserved dignity. She deserved justice.
Until every act of violence against s*x workers is treated with the same seriousness as violence against anyone else, there can be no talk of equal justice.
Artist and murderer Zwelethu Mthethwa paroled

her name: Nokuphila Kumalo.

Her life mattered. It still does.
