LOS ANGELES — Free Speech Coalition (FSC) will host a free industry-only webinar titled "The War on Porn: Media Strategies for Advocacy" Tuesday at 11 a.m. (PDT).
Details about the webinar follow:
FSC will host a special workshop and strategy session on Tuesday, November 2 for adult industry activists looking to fight back in the War on Porn. The session, led by FSC Director of Public Affairs Mike Stabile and featuring veteran industry activists, is designed to help sex workers and other activists understand the current media landscape, and how to use media — from press to self-created content — to get their message out more powerfully.
“We have thousands of active creators and other industry workers who want more help fighting back against censorship and repression,” says Stabile. “The way we win this battle is by turning creators and others in our industry into more effective activists, and teaching them how to get their stories out there.”
The session will be divided into two parts. The first, a webinar, will cover the media tactics being used by the antis, as well as general tools and techniques that adult activists can use to help change the narrative. This first part will be recorded so that it can be shared with those who cannot make the meeting.
The second part of the meeting will be an off-the-record strategy session to discuss more specific media plans to fight back against anti-porn and anti-sex work organizations, and to hear ideas from individuals. It will not be recorded.
All attendees for the meeting will be vetted.
“Last week’s town hall showed how passionate our industry is, and how many people are invested in this fight,” says Stabile. “But if we’re going to be successful, we need to move from defense to offense. That’s why, over the next weeks and months, we’ll be hosting more webinars and workshops to help our community grow its political and cultural strength.”
