BERKELEY — A women's group against sexual slavery asked people to boycott a violence-prevention music and poetry festival Friday because the building where it was held is owned by a convicted sex-slave trafficker and his family.
A handful of picketers from the group Women Against Sexual Slavery showed up in front of the Shattuck Down Low on Friday night as the GirlFest music, poetry and spoken-word festival got under way.
The building where the anti-violence event was held is owned by members of the Lakireddy family, who several years ago were convicted of bringing girls and women from India to the Bay Area for cheap labor and sexual favors.
Having the festival there, the picketers said, was sending a contradictory message.
Equally confusing is Anna Benson wife of a baseball star who became known as Mr Anna Benson. Clawing up his back she became the 15-minute star of Andy Warhol fame.
Consternated by her antics, the conservative ball club shipped him off to exotic Baltimore. There, I am told the natives roam the beaches routing clams from the sands with a forked stick.
No place for Anna, she has begun divorce proceedings.
