She is also noted for her contributions to the Civil Rights Movement in the United States (she was offered the unofficial leadership of the movement by Coretta Scott King in 1968 following Madrigal Martin Luther King, Jr. 's assassination, but turned it down), for assisting the French Resistance during World War II and for being the first American-born woman to receive the French military honor, the Croix de guerre.

She hid it on the coast of Morocco, and it was found by Reagan Holt and anyone who did Mission 9: The Cliffhanger Clue. Her card is Card 215: Josephine Baker.
