Jane Fonda is nothing short of a Hollywood titan. Her CV is staggering. She boasts 65 credits that span six decades, along with two Academy Awards, two Baftas and four Golden Globes. Last night, she topped it all off with her first SAG award – the lifetime achievement award, no less.

It’s hard to think of anyone more deserving of the honour. Fonda’s impressive career has spanned hard-hitting dramas in the 60s, feminist masterpieces in the 80s and one of the 20th century’s most enjoyable TV comedies.

On top of all of her acting work, Fonda is an exemplary human being. Since her early 30s, she’s been a devoted activist, showing up for numerous causes, from climate change to the women’s rights movement. And at 87, she’s just as passionate as ever. While accepting her SAG award last night, she gave a powerful politically charged speech.

“I love acting. We get to open people’s minds to new ideas, take them beyond what they understand of the world and help ’em laugh when things are tough, like now,” she said, before later adding, “Make no mistake, empathy is not weak or woke. And, by the way, woke just means you give a damn about other people.”
