Chinese activist, Ye Haiyan, advocates for sex worker's rights. In May of 2014, she was attacked in her home and arrested for being a whistleblower. She exposed the harsh conditions of local brothels, which sex workers were sexually and physically abused (U.S. Government Publishing Office).

When she was about 41 years old, she was documented in a film called, "Hooligan Sparrow." This film captured her struggles in protesting against the sexual abuse of a few underaged students by the school's principal.
