To honor the 100 year anniversary of women’s right to vote in 1920 -
I thought about the parallel between women gaining their voice just as the passenger pigeon lost theirs and became extinct. that
I want to honor Martha the last surviving Passenger pigeon as well as the women of the Suffragette movement.

Illustration from the Sufi epic poem written in 1177
This is Martha — you all may know her — she is a star among birds …
She was the last surviving passenger pigeon (her mate George had passed several years before her — they are of course named after George and Martha Washington … )
Sadly since there are no recordings of the voice of the passenger pigeon I sought out the closest living relatives.
