Interview with Meena Saraswathi Seshu | Empowering Sex Workers & Fighting Discrimination

In this compelling interview, I sit down with Meena Saraswathi Seshu, the trailblazing founder of NGOs such as Sampada Grameen Mahila Sanstha (SANGRAM), Veshya Anyay Mukti Parishad (VAMP), Vidrohi Mahila Manch, Muskan, and Nazariya. She has dedicated her life to raising awareness about HIV/AIDS and empowering women in sex work.

Meena speaks passionately about the harsh realities faced by sex workers in India, from rampant exploitation to severe discrimination. Despite sex work not being a criminal offense, these women endure immense harassment. The injustice doesn't stop there—their children often face stigma, denied education and equal opportunities.

Beyond the struggle of sex work, Meena sheds light on the social ostracism these women face, being labeled with demeaning and abusive names. This interview is a powerful exploration of the need for change, protection of rights, and the fight against deeply ingrained societal prejudices.
