S.W.E.A.T. features conversations about performance and performativity of the sexual/ized body at work—work as labour of survival and labour of a/Art with host Mad Kate.

This months conversation is with author, activist and economic anthropologist Julio Linares

Julio Linares is an economic anthropologist born in the territorios known today as Guatemala. In the last 13 years, he has been a migrant in Taiwan, the UK and Germany. Since 2018, he has served as Public Outreach for the Basic Income Earth Network. His first book “Decolonizing Money” (Pluto Press, 2025) argues for the abolition of the US Dollar as a means to transform the distribution of wealth and power in the planet, in order to bring forth a social ecological just transition. He enjoys giving and receiving massages and doing joyful anarchist resistance across social movements. He is currently based in Berlin.

We all sweat as we provide care, as we labour, as we perform our work, as we fuck, as we survive and as we sacrifice one choice for the other. How exactly do we define our work and how does that work entangle and circumscribe our sexual identities, our racialized bodies, our creative lives and the ways in which we provide care? How do we perform both tasks and identities within the framework of that which we consider work? These conversations are a means to speak between intersectionalities by anchoring through our (always, already, and ever pervasive) sexualized and racialized bodies, our working bodies, our artistic bodies and our performative bodies. I hope that they contribute to dialogues which normalize sex work as work, and all work as deserving of respect, healthy conditions, and a living wage.
