Black, female, international superstar….and spy 🕵🏽‍♀️! Freda Joséphine McDonald, born in St. Louis in 1906 (🤙🏾), went on to have a very successful career as a dancer and singer. She performed on the largest stages around the world but that wasn’t her only claim to fame. During the Second World War, after Germany invaded France, Baker acted as a spy by taking secret messages written in invisible ink on her sheet music as she went to perform from country to country. We STAN a stealthy Queen.
