Pornography is inextricably linked to sexual exploitation and sex trafficking. In 2020, TraffickingHub, the National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE) and a New York Times article spotlighted the stories of individuals who were sex trafficked or sexually abused in videos shared on the now notorious website, Pornhub. Pornhub and other free porn upload sites like it claim they have no responsibility for the content uploaded by users on their site, so then what are we to do to stop this sexual violence? Listen in to our conversation with NCOSE's Jake Roberson to learn how to navigate this topic and make a difference in your community.
