Whether that’s through education and teaching younger generations about respect and consent, or by being more than just a bystander when you see something happening.

This campaign couldn’t have launched at a better time, as well-known “prankster” Sam Pepper just posted this video of himself going around and groping unsuspecting women. Even the very first woman in the video immediately tells Sam, “I don’t like that.”
Already, YouTubers have taken to Tumblr, Twitter, and this videos comments section to voice their opinions. Laci Green even started an open letter to Sam on Tumblr which is signed by many of YouTube’s most prominent influencers. You can find, and reblog her letter by clicking here.

We’re so glad and proud to be part of a community where situations like this aren’t just swept under the rug, but brought up for discussion. Not only discussion of what’s wrong in the community, but how we can address and fix these problems. We urge our readers to go and report Sam’s video as abusive content. No form of sexual assault should ever be considered a “prank” that people just laugh off.
We also urge everyone to visit ItsOnUs.org to take the pledge to prevent sexual assault.
