Jane Fonda, who is famous for her activism, recently gave a speech while accepting the SAG Life Achievement Award. In her speech, she took a jab at President Donald Trump without actually saying his name. At 87 years old, Fonda talked about the current political situation and defended the idea of being “woke,” saying that having empathy is a strength, not a weakness.
She called for a “big tent” approach to tackle political issues, urging people to understand each other despite their different views.
Her remarks come at a time when US politics are really chaotic, especially with Trump’s second term filled with controversial actions, like setting up the Department of Government Efficiency, which is led by Elon Musk, and his support for Vladimir Putin during the Ukraine conflict.
Fonda’s speech points out the rising tensions and the importance of empathy in these divided times.
