Plague Whores I: Sex workers and Disease

A conversation about sex workers and disease in renaissance, Medieval & Victorian London.

The first of our radical history chats about sex workers, marginalised people, and pestilences. With Dr. Erin Maglaque on sex workers and ghettos during the plague in 14th century Florence, and Dr. Laura Agustin on sex workers and loose canon women in Medieval London and good households vs vectors of disease in ‘rescue’ strategies. With insights from our recent past (like, WEEKS ago) onto the looming future.
