Cumann na mBan / Die hard women need to be ‘taught a severe lesson. It’s the only way of deal with such a menace’ - 1923. The foundations of the Irish State were steeped in misogyny. #irishwmnhist

It was so fantastic to be with feminist friends and comrades I haven’t seen in far too long at the launch of this important book ‘Road to Repeal; 30 years of struggle in Ireland for contraception and abortion’. It was a great night, Sis/Cis-ters #irishwmnhist

RT @MaryMcAuliffe4
