#90 - Porn Awareness on Campus | Lily Moric - a podcast by High Noon

from 2021-09-29T09:00

:: ::

The proliferation of pornography is one of the downsides when using the internet. Because of modern technology, it is accessible to anybody with a computer and an Internet connection. Pornography may be more acceptable in some cultures, but when one considers the messages and impact that it has, one may understand how troubling it truly is. 

In this episode, we are joined by Lily Moric, who came all the way from Canada and works for the National Center on Sexual Exploitation. Lily started an advocacy group on campus throughout Canada, trying to change age verification and raising porn awareness on campuses in her country.

If you’re someone who wants to do something with your life and make a difference, be inspired by Lily Moric and her story of how she made a difference in her community in a very powerful and meaningful way. She has started her own initiative called Questioning Pornography where she’s helping to create awareness about pornography, its disadvantages, and the harmful effects it can bring to a person.

Lily brings us along her journey on when, why, and how she started her vision to help inform others, started her own podcast, and her reason behind creating a club to gather people and share her advocacy in the form of a meaningful conversation. Listen to Episode 90 to learn more about her story!
