Hurt by the System Less Nelspruit Participant
Hi South African Police services, My name is Less. I am a social activist; godfather, brother, grandson, service provider for pleasure seekers, and a comforter. I come from a small town called Malelane in Mpumalanga, South Africa. This town is on the border of the majestic Kruger National Park and Swaziland and Mozambique.
In this zine, you will learn why it is important for you (South African Police service providers) to serve equally and lesson the secondary victimisation experienced by sex workers. As well as protect the fundamental human rights of all South African citizens.
I want to tell you about the cruelty and human rights violations that you are committing as police towards certain key populations, such as sex workers, transgender people, and gay people. What happened to your slogan, which says that you serve to protect? My expectation is that you are required to unilaterally target offenders. Or, is there a higher victimisation risk in places where a person is a sex worker and trans? Why are you treating sex workers and transgender people in a more severe and inhuman way? What is it about us that bothers you so much?
