Mindbrowse, Sssh.com to Host Webinar on Anti-Porn Activism March 1
LOS ANGELES, Calif. – Mindbrowse and Sssh.com are hosting a livestreamed webinar tomorrow, titled “When Demand & Rejection Collide: Anti-Porn Activism in a Pro-Sex World.” The webinar will take place via Twitter on Tuesday, March 1 at 4pm Pacific time.
The event was organized and will be moderated by sociologist Dr. Chauntelle Tibbals, and will feature speakers Siri Dahl, Ana Foxxx, Casey Kisses, Siren SaintSin, Domino Presley, Kristel Penn, attorney Corey D. Silverstein and Mike Stabile of the Free Speech Coalition.
“Historically, the wider social world has always had an uneven relationship with the adult industry community and sex media, one that vacillates between two broad perspectives: anti-pornography activism and pro-pornography fascination,” Tibbals said. “Our wider social world is currently in a period of anti-porn sentiment, one that’s being elevated by noteworthy mainstream media outlets alongside banking and payment processing entities. All this, while sex work is more visible and more visibly leveraged than ever.”
“We’re going to be discussing various tensions that emerge when society continues to double-down on ‘hating’ something that it clearly loves and I’m so excited that we’re having this discussion with our community,” Tibbals added.
Sssh.com owner and director Angie Rowntree said her intention with livestreamed Mindbrowse events is to “provide a platform for a diverse array of perspectives from our community to deep-dive relevant topics and to make that discussion as accessible as possible via technology.”
“The idea of enhancing accessibility via technology has finally become normalized, and we will continue to press that message alongside nuanced discussion of issues that impact our entire community,” Rowntree said. “We are so excited for this event.”
Following the event’s completion, a recording of the “Anti-Porn Activism in a Pro-Sex World” discussion will be available on Mindbrowse.com. To watch the discussion in real time, follow Sssh.com on Twitter @ssshforwomen.
