News summary

At the 2025 SAG Awards, Jane Fonda accepted the Life Achievement Award, delivering a powerful speech urging Hollywood to embrace empathy as a means of resistance against political and social injustices. She emphasized that empathy is not a sign of weakness or 'wokeness,' but rather a commitment to caring for others, especially those who might be hurt by current events. Reflecting on her six-decade career, which includes significant activism alongside her acting roles, Fonda called for unity among diverse political perspectives to effectively combat looming challenges.
