Conservative Group Hosts Pornography Awareness Week

The conservative National Coalition for the Protection of Children & Families is marking this week as Pornography Awareness Week.

The group is urging citizens to participate by writing to their local mayors and governors and urging them to publicly declare Oct. 30 through Nov. 5 as Pornography Awareness Week and also host a breakfast or luncheon for officials to issue a proclamation about the week.

Citizens were also urged to write to the U.S. Attorney General and urge him to enforce federal obscenity laws, as well as plan a series of activities like a rally, training session or public assembly to draw attention to the issue.

They were also urged to write to a local newspaper editor and local media and explain the harmful effects of porn and also to write about the White Ribbon Campaign which encourages citizens to wear a white ribbon to heighten awareness of the negative impact of pornography.

Citizens were also asked to write to the president and tell him about Pornography Awareness Week, publicly recognize those who work with sex abuse survivors and commend in writing owners of stores that don’t carry porn.
