Last May, thousands of people gathered in London in solidarity with the people of Palestine. I was one them - all around me, women were chanting, waving flags, calling for a resolution of the conflict. In that moment, my thoughts went to all the women around the world living in territories torn apart by war where, often, the political sphere is male dominated and women are not allowed to express their political and social views. 'Songbird' is dedicated to all the oppressed women around the world, hoping for their voices to be heard.
