The Red Thread (De Rode Draad)

Promotion of condom usage by De Rode Draad (1987)

The Red Thread (De Rode Draad in Dutch) was an advocacy-support group for prostitutes in the Netherlands. It was formed in 1985[1] and declared bankrupt in 2012.[2] The name The Red Thread (De Rode Draad) was inspired by Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel The Scarlet Letter, in which a 'sinful' woman has to put a red letter A on her clothing.[1]
