Not only has Natalie Douglas broken the record for playing the Broadway at Birdland stage; this past week, she went one step further - literally. She fractured her fibula a few hours before her "Freedom Songs" concert. Of course, that didn't stop her from performing, perched on a stool with her bare foot wrapped in ice! It was one of her all-time greatest concerts exuding joy, humor and her indescribable passion for civil rights songs. Check out photos from the concert below!
