easy access to pornography puts kids at greater risk
The Diocese of Covington Offices of Safe Environment and Catholic Schools is sponsoring a special presentation on Nov. 6, at 9 am, and again at 7 pm, by Dr. Mandy Sanchez, entitled: Growing up in a Porn Culture: How Social Media, Gaming and Pornography Harm Our Youth. Both presentations will be held at St. Henry District High School Drees Homes Auditorium, 3755 Scheben Dr, Erlanger, KY. All adults, 18 and over, are welcome to attend.
Since 2000, the internet has become the main vehicle for porn, and hardcore porn is just a click away—it is free, violent, and based on the degradation and abuse of women and children. The proliferation of the smartphone, together with the growth of teen-targeted social media sites, has opened up yet more avenues for teens to access hardcore porn. This presentation will explore the most popular social media platforms accessed by young people today, linking the social media, and porn industries and the harmful effects of their exposure on young people.
Dr. Sanchez is the programming director at Culture Reframed. She joined the organization as the program coordinator in the spring of 2021. She holds a doctorate in Sociology with a specialization in Criminology and Women’s Studies from the University of Hawaii and has been a professor of sociology and criminal justice since 2013.
