1[Black Sheep] Beastly Truth: the story of George Howe Warning: This podcast discusses underage prostitution. In the 1900s a series of lurid headlines were published in the New Zealand Truth about George Howe, a "Beastly Brothel-keeper" who pimped out underage girls from his shop on Wellington's Adelaide Road. But what Truth found most "beastly" about Howe, is that he was Chinese. Black Sheep looks at the case of George Howe, his exploitation of underage sex workers, and the "editorial hate-crimes" of what was once NZ's most influential newspaper. Discusses underage prostitution, racist language. Contains discussion of underage prostitution and quotes racist slurs which featured in the NZ Truth Newspaper i.e. "slimy slit-eyes" and "concupiscent chows".
