The Power of Social Media in a Pandemic
Exploited – Crimes Against Humanity: Season 16 | Episode 06 airs April 02, 2020
We truly live in a “world without borders.” Every day there is an update as we measure the impact of the Covid-19 crisis on our lives, our city, our country and compare it to Italy, China, Japan etc. Most of us are in isolation, and now more than ever we turn to online information to analyze the state of our lives. Many are telecommuting, live streaming, taking online classes and playing more games than ever. It is truly an historic and life changing experience.
Kids have more access to strangers than ever before and now they have time on their hands. Some are bored, some are scared and some just want to try out something different to relieve their anxiety. As stress accelerates, pedophiles and predators become even more aggressive, obsessive and they also have time on their hands.
Join us Thursday, April 02, 2020 at 7:00am PST on Voice America Variety Channel or access the archived show on ExploitedCrimes.com as we examine the power of social media during this crisis. We will look at “whats true,” whats possible, how predators seduce scared and vulnerable kids, and how we can all THRIVE through social media.
