Abriana Chilelli had to drive her kids by passing the Skeb Strip Club ads every day on her way home from school in downtown Denver. But in addition to taking fatal attitudes and detours or even worse, accepting it, she also contacted the city councillors and within a few days the pornographic image was gone. We discuss her story and the lessons she has learned about how positive change in our community can still be achieved and the importance of teaching children the true meaning of their bodies.
