Interview with Robert Jensen

We talked with Robert Jensen who was in Grand Rapids to speak at the GVSU campus after a screening of the film The Price of Pleasure: Pornography, Sexuality and Relationships.

Our conversation centered around his analysis of pornography, particularly the harm in the production and consumption of pornography. Jensen also talked about the prevalence of racism and racist depictions in the production of pornography as well as a look at pornography through an anti-capitalist lens.

The interview included some discussion about the uprisings in the Middle East and the Midwest, then ended with his thoughts on working for social justice in the present moment.
