Please reblog if you can?

I don’t usually use Tumblr for political purposes, but this is so important to me. 

The 8th amendment in Irish constitutional law means women have no access to abortion services. In any situation. Not if you’ve been raped. Not if you’re 12 years old. Not if very far along, you discover your baby has no chance of life after you give birth. 

As it’s illegal to seek an abortion, there is also a huge, suffocating silence around it. This video is a friend of mine, reading one of the stories from the Facebook page ‘Women of the Eight’, where people anonymously tell their stories. 

If you care, please reblog, or think about donating. Non-Irish US interests are pouring money into the anti-choice camp, funding all kinds of horrible campaigns. The national vote to repeal the 8th and allow access is on May 25th.
