POOLE, UNITED KINGDOM — Facebook triggered a hornets nest when it removed a student’s photograph of a woman breastfeeding as part of an art exhibition. <br /> <br />Mica Bohannon, a student at Arts University Bournemouth, had taken the picture for a project and posted it up on the social media platform, the Daily Echo reported. <br /> <br />Bohannon then got a message saying the photo had been removed because it violated Facebook’s Community Standards for nudity, sexual and violent content. <br /> <br /> <br />She shared the notification with her friends, and of course, everyone was totally outraged. <br /> <br />According to the art student, “the point of my project is to turn images of breastfeeding into artwork in aim to normalize the sight of breastfeeding through recognition.” <br /> <br />Facebook has since apologized and restored Bohannon’s post.
