Talk:Mae C. Hawes

Baha'i history
, I find it more than curious that Alain Locke and Leslie Pinckney Hill, leader of Cheney University through the period, were also Baha'is. I wonder if some source might more explicitly link them. Regardless it would be interesting to see Hawes life as a Baha'i expanded beyond mere mention. Smkolins (talk) 11:28, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I found another point of contact…. Just a point, but lends interest to the theme - Louis G. Gregory and she and Locke also attended a social event together, among many. I wonder about more audience members…. Smkolins (talk) 11:36, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Update! Mrs. Southerland Maxwell, one of the hostesses, is May Maxwell via her husband's name! Mary Hanford in the list might be Mary Hanford Ford. Smkolins (talk) 15:18, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * another point of contact is that another audience member, Harry Burleigh, gave a talk/performance at a Baha'i sponsored interracial meeting in 1933: Smkolins (talk) 11:47, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Another point of contact is with the performer - Marie Antoinette Aussenac de Broglie (a Woman in Red) - herself wrote a French article discussing the religion: Smkolins (talk) 18:09, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * You're on a roll! There must be a whole big untold story of this group. The Bahá'i people I've known have generally been very involved in social reform and community groups, so I guess it's no surprise that this bunch was too. Penny Richards (talk) 18:37, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
