    Treated like dirt in the country she was born; loved, respected and honored in a foreign land.

      Yes, that's true. That's why France is recognizing her as a national hero in the Pantheon.

    Good visual summary of this amazing woman. However, one small error: she was actually inducted in the Pantheon on 30 November 2021, NOT 2020.

    Joséphine Baker fait totalement partie de l histoire et il était légitime

    I don't want to take away from her accomplishments because she is an amazing woman!!! But this video gives me 💡 that maybe if I move... The treatment I receive from others may change. I may actually be respected more somewhere else...

      A lot of people still move to the USA for that exact reason. Ask an immigrant running their own business how they feel about your comment. The issue is as "black and white" as you make it out to be.
