DataTrigger is not binding to a global static property?

Question

I am using DataTrigger to change the background color in WPF. I have a property in Globals Class which have a true and false value. I check a lot of code from Stackoverflow but I didn't get it working. Please check.

<Grid Height="350" Width="525" Name="gridTesting">
        <Grid.Style>
            <Style TargetType="{x:Type Grid}">
                <Style.Triggers>
                    <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Background, Path=IsFB}" Value="True">
                        <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
                    </DataTrigger>

                    <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Background, Path=IsFB}" Value="False">
                        <Setter Property="Background" Value="Blue"/>
                    </DataTrigger>
                </Style.Triggers>
            </Style>
        </Grid.Style>
    </Grid>

 public static bool IsFB = true;

I have manually set the variable in my code behind c# file. Any idea why it's failed to run. I change the property and make changes for DataTrigger but not work.

I need to change the background color in this case (on the basis of the value that is selected (compiled time).

You have no binding, because didn't define your DataContext in MainWindow.xaml.cs

With the following code it's working

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Data;
using System.Windows.Documents;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
using System.Windows.Navigation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;

namespace WPFDataTriggers
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Interaction logic for MainWindow.xaml
    /// </summary>
    public partial class MainWindow : Window, INotifyPropertyChanged
    {
        private bool isFB = true;
        public bool IsFB
        {
            get { return isFB; }
            set
            {
                isFB = value;
                this.NotifyPropertyChanged("IsFB");
            }
        }
        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;

        public void NotifyPropertyChanged(string nomPropriete)
        {
            if (PropertyChanged != null)
                PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(nomPropriete));
        }

        private bool NotifyPropertyChanged<T>(ref T variable, T valeur, [CallerMemberName] string nomPropriete = null)
        {
            if (object.Equals(variable, valeur)) return false;

            variable = valeur;
            NotifyPropertyChanged(nomPropriete);
            return true;
        }
        public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            IsFB = true;
            this.DataContext = this;
        }
    }
}
