A movement on TikTok is encouraging young people to quit vaping to show solidarity with the people of the Democratic Republic of Congo, after learning about the child labour and slave-like conditions in the Congo mines.

One Gen Zer has gone viral for starting a trend of quitting vaping after she was “disgusted” to learn one fact about it.

She's telling young people to quit vaping
