It’s getting hot out there and it’s not even summer yet. 🥵 While it’s better than subzero temperatures, working on the street can be very uncomfortable and dangerous in the heat…

100% of the profits from these tees go towards mutual aid for trans s3x workers working outdoors on Frobenstraße. Some folks are unhoused, fleeing violence, drug-users, formerly incarcerated… basically, in precarious situations which sometimes need a quick mutual-aid band-aid.

Many sex workers (both cis and trans), trans women & queer people lived here. We want to continue fighting for our friends and are calling for our queer siblings, colleagues and allies to come to the demo on Sunday! 3/4
