Australia, 1970. Summer of Love. Summer of Hate. Sunshine & brutality. A pregnant teenager. State-sanctioned corruption & abuse behind locked doors. Forced adoption. Forgotten Australians. Ring any bells? #forgottenaustralians #forcedadoption #teenagepregnancy #australianhistory
“Then, suddenly my world turned gray,
and darkness wiped aside my joy.
