SUMMARY:Why decriminalizing sex work will help to end trafficking: Canada in a global context
DESCRIPTION:The criminal laws that prohibit the purchase and/or sale of sexual services do not protect sex workers\, but\, instead\, fuel stigma\, discrimination\, harassment and targeted violence against sex workers. These criminal laws also create barriers for sex workers to access health\, social and legal services. \nSex workers and human rights organizations in Canada and globally are calling for full decriminalization of sex work to recognize the rights and agency of sex workers\, to end stigma\, violence and exploitation\, and improve their quality of life. On this panel US\, Canadian and international scholars\, experts\, and activists will discuss why decriminalizing sex work will help to end trafficking in Canada.

SUMMARY:Silenced Histories: Scotland and the Caribbean
DESCRIPTION:In his new book\, Slaves and Highlanders\, David Alston presents a major contribution to the debate on reparation by reappraising Scots involvement and complicity in the slave trade. He explores the prominent role of Highland Scots in exploitation of enslaved Africans and their descendants in the cotton\, sugar and coffee plantations of the 18th and 19th centuries. In this event\, David will be joined by Juanita Cox of Guyana SPEAKS and the Institute of Commonwealth Studies to discuss the themes.
