@AlanaFarrell_ Alana thank you for this brilliant contribution!

[Dr Magda Furgalska @MagdaFurgalska]

Fascinating blog from @AlanaFarrell_ !

[Shrill by Mouth @Iskesullas]

"Restricting information access was a key part of attempts to prevent abortions since the foundation of the State. A system of censorship was coordinated through the prohibition of publications, injunctions against information sharers, and the criminalisation of referral".

[Archiving the 8th Project @archivingthe8th]

Read an important and fascinating new blog post from @AlanaFarrell_ who is currently a PhD student at @unibirmingham on censorship and information-related control.
