Shooting to fame at the height of the Roaring Twenties in Paris, Josephine #Baker was a Missouri-born dancer who found her spiritual home in #France, far from the racial segregation of her native USA. Yet the early years of her career can make for uncomfortable viewing for a contemporary audience, with Baker seemingly complicit in numerous racist stereotypes. But for Ilana Navaro, director of the film "Josephine Baker: The Story of an Awakening", Baker "took what she had and, later on, turned it into a political tool" - as part of the French Resistance during World War II, and even later as a leading voice in the #US civil rights movement.
