Congratulations to CGH's Rebecca Williamson for winning the prize for best PGR paper at the @socialhistsoc.bsky.social conference, for her paper entitled ‘Wilfully, Wickedly, Feloniously’: Scots Law and Abortion, 1858′! This is a fantastic endorsement of Rebecca's important and timely work

Delighted to have been awarded the Postgraduate Paper Prize at this year’s Social History Society conference! @socialhistsoc.bsky.social Amidst cuts, redundancies, and the institutional disavowal of historical research, it was invigorating to engage with scholars who continue doing the Good Work

“a historical perspective to this ruling lends weight to…concerns about how [it] creates peril both for trans people and for cis women, who are at risk from biological essentialism. We reject the construction of trans rights and women’s rights as being in opposition to each other. “👏🏻🏳️‍⚧️

The @cgh-glasgow.bsky.social statement about the UKSC ruling & its implications is now available on our website: www.gla.ac.uk/research/az/... So glad that we can stand together for these intellectual & pedagogical principles!
