A short part of a film where Josephine Baker presents her "Danse Sauvage" in her "Revue Nègre". She is dancing with Joe Alex. I'm sorry it's not a long film.

  • Josephine Baker Is Black , Stop With The Fuckery About Black People , She was black

  • Whoo, you all just don't want black people to have credit for shit do you. Well...somebody thought Josephine was black with an African jungle scene here. Africa has only one country with jungles, and that's the Congo in central Africa, the rest of Africa is desert, savanna, and coastal, and arid. I see the racist ignorance still plays itself today. Somebody thought she was black which is why she segregated aginst and made to enter through kitchens. This girl is from east St. Louis. She was black

  • she was a black, brilliant, beautiful, courageous woman and a freedom fighter

  • @TheHmc1 because baby, in this world when it comes down to it your black. her skin was brown, her birth certificate calls her a negro. when u say biracial, what you're really saying is you don't want to identify her blackness and we all know in that down the line in history biracial people were only excepted by their black families. I should know.

  • @msalah2341 last time I checked she was a negro on her birth certificate. makes her black right....right msala2341 stfu!!!

  • @TheHmc1 mixing Technically all biracial people can in fact be black by definition. Which is why Obama refers to himself as black.

  • @TheHmc1 lol Become familiar with the history of America. Mixing of race happened to most black people somewhere down the line. So therefore she is black. Her story is our story, it's our mother's story our grandmother's story etc. In addition, If you look up the definition of black it means you have to have African ancestry in you but it doesn't say how much because you can't define black if most black people don't have pure African DNA (if that even exist).

  • @TheHmc1 Why can't BLACK PEOPLE.

    Listen here,learn to stop labeling ALL black people.

  • Guys,quit with the racism and slut-shaming -_-

  • @Armonebug Sorry girl, but no white person will be tempted to claim you, with your illiterate rant...

  • I think that a successful, independent woman like her would not choose to do this dance unless she wanted to.

  • @OutsideInCrowd agrees
