Last night i spoke of the afterlives of Irish revolutionary women in the Free State-a state which defined a narrow model of what it meant to be an Irish woman. Anyone who did not live up to that model was surveilled, shamed and/or institutionalised! Narrow definitions of womanhood harm all women.
๐กJoin FASI's @nuclearbalm.bsky.social & @sophyhiggins.bsky.social who will be celebrating Intl. Womenโs Day with a panel discussion highlighting the contributions of women to diplomacy & security.
