- Description
- A history of prostitution as labor. Prostitution in Nairobi from 1900 to the 1970s was work that arose from the opportunities cacing rural families in a changing colonial economy, which in turn shaped personal relationships, the definition of urban space, and the accumulation of wealth. Author uses oral history of the colonized to reconstruct African colonial history.
