The best thing you will hear today. Jane Fonda has been an activist almost her whole life and she knows how to talk the talk and walk the walk. Right now, Hollywood needs to take a page from her book and speak the fuck up.
It’s a wonderful speech especially at the end when she speaks out against what’s happening and inspires people to fight back, evoking the Black List and how good people in Hollywood fought back.
She was well received but you could tell that people in the audience were nervous. I suppose some of them are just getting by but most are rich and famous and can easily afford to speak out like she did. The worst that would happen to them is that they’d have to move to the south of France and live in a villa. No excuse for silence from people the MAGA brownshirts would love nothing more than to destroy.
She never mentioned Trump and Musk’s names. She didn’t have to. We all know what’s happening. It shouldn’t take an 87 year old lifetime achievement winner to be the only one to sound the alarm.
