Streamate's 'Elevate' Partners With Miss Mei on Decriminalization Initiative

SEATTLE — Streamate's Elevate initiative is debuting a November collaboration with creator and community advocate Miss Mei that will highlight the modern criminalization of sex work.

Miss Mei has spent over 13 years in the field of sex work, and as the co-founder of the Miami-based organization Decrim 305, they advocate for the decriminalization, destigmatization, and decarceration of sex work.

In addition to their work with Decrim 305, Mei is involved in building mutual aid networks and providing essential resources for sex workers. Mei also holds board positions at The Cupcake Girls and Yaya Por Vida, where they contribute to social justice initiatives, challenge harmful stereotypes, and work to reshape public narratives.

The Miss Mei x Elevate partnership includes an interview with Mei by Streamate's Vanessa Eve, as well as a Q&A series titled "Defining Moments in the Modern Criminalization of Sex Work," where Mei will provide insights into the ongoing criminalization of modern sex work and the issues that all community members should be aware of. Those issues are expected to include the Nordic Model, the federal sex trafficking law known as FOSTA-SESTA, and age verification laws.

A rep for Elevate enthused about the partnership with Miss Mei.

"We are thrilled to partner with Mei, whose work is a powerful example of community care in action," said the rep. "We deeply admire their hands-on, engaged approach to advocacy, which demonstrates the profound impact individuals can have when they actively step up and drive change."

Mei will also talk about the emotions she experienced while growing up, the discovery that she was autistic, and how art helped her navigate that diagnosis as well as her experience in the adult industry.

"I have a really extensive background in the art magnet program during my youth," said Mei. "I had a lot of really big feelings and couldn’t navigate them, and art really helped me regulate some of those emotions."
