In Memory of Lek

Posted on | February 2, 2010 |

A message from Empower.

Rachaneekon U-para or as we knew her better, Lek from Empower died last week after a short battle with cancer. Lek was one of our sweetest strongest smartest and sexiest sisters. Some of you will have met Lek in Cambodia or Mexico. We posting this homemade video that Lek starred in to honor her memory as a passionate sex worker activist, a creative artist, a funny woman and a wonderful friend.

Watch the video on YouTube: here

  • ABOUT X:TALK

    The x:talk project is a space to organise and empower workers in the sex industry and to encourage critical interventions around the issues of MIGRATION, GENDER and LABOUR.

    The site is arranged around three themes: ANALYSIS - the x:talk blog, PEDAGOGY - free English Classes for migrant sex workers and PRAXIS - creating change and causing trouble.

    The project is a conscious effort to develop a practical and needed service and ultimately hopes to build political alliances and strengthen migrant sex worker networks.
