to Stop Racist Human Skin Phobia
Although I am not currently active in skin freedom due to stress etc
regarding my period/s in prison, an idea popped in my head for an
event while I was updating the SRHSP website; so I'm just making a
note of my idea here so I don't forget the details.

SKIN VERSES METAL

The event would start at a public-nude-metal statue. There are a few
nude metal sculptures in central London; some are very close together
therefore a route between metal statues could easily be planned. The
point is that lifeless and hard dehumanisation of nude metal statues
is socially acceptable because society is skin-phobic (dehumanised);
whereas real, human skin can incur persecution. The event would skin-
free art-criticism to counteract the metallic hardness of our
culturally-dead skin-phobic society.
