00:00Jane, even though we somehow get to call you our colleague, you are absolutely right.

00:29You are absolutely peerless.

00:31It's my honor to present the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award to you, the sublime Jane Fonda.

00:38Wow. Wow.

01:04This means the world to me.

01:06What about the sound system?

01:08I'm going to talk loud.

01:10This means the world to me.

01:13You can't know.

01:14Thank you, SAG-AFTRA.

01:18Wow, and your enthusiasm makes this seem, I don't know, less like a late twilight of my life and more like a go-girl kick-ass.

01:32Which is good, because I'm not done.

01:40You know, I have had a really weird career.

01:46Totally not, as my agents there at that table will testify to, totally unstrategic.

01:52I retired for 15 years, and then I came back at 65, which is not usual.

01:59I made one of my most successful movies in my 80s, and probably in my 90s I'll be doing my own stunts in an action movie.

02:12Have you ever heard the phrase, how does it go?

02:16Yeah, it's okay to be a late bloomer as long as you don't miss the flower show.

02:22I'm a late bloomer.

02:24This is the flower show.

02:27Yeah.

02:30I love acting.

02:33We get to open people's minds to new ideas.

02:37Take them beyond what they understand of the world, and help them laugh when things are tough, like now.

02:45And for a woman like me, who grew up in the 40s and 50s when women weren't supposed to have opinions and get angry,

02:53acting gave me a chance to play angry women with opinions.

02:57Which, as you know, is a bit of a stretch for me.

03:04I'm a big believer in unions.

03:07Yeah.

03:11They have our backs.

03:16They bring us into community, and they give us power.

03:22Community means power.

03:25And this is really important right now, when workers' power is being attacked and community is being weakened.

03:37Yes.

03:39But SAG-AFTRA is different than most other unions.

03:45Because us, the workers, we actors, we don't manufacture anything tangible.

03:53What we create is empathy.

03:57Our job is to understand another human being so profoundly that we can touch their souls.

04:06We know why they do what they do.

04:09We feel their joys and their pains.

04:12And I can conjure up voices.

04:27We have to drill deep, don't we?

04:30We have to know, for example, if a young woman is cutting, or she's a sex worker,

04:39there's a good chance that as a young girl she was sexually abused or incested.

04:44Right?

04:45I'm thinking Brie Daniels and Clute.

04:48And I'm sure many of you guys have played bullies and misogynists.

04:56And you can pretty much know, you actors, right, that probably their father bullied them

05:02and called men that he felt were weak, he called them losers or pussies.

05:08And while you may hate the behavior of your character,

05:12you have to understand and empathize with the traumatized person you're playing, right?

05:19I'm thinking Sebastian Stan in The Apprentice.

05:29Make no mistake, empathy is not weak or woke.

05:32And by the way, woke just means you give a damn about other people.

05:38Back to empathy.

05:46A whole lot of people are going to be really hurt by what is happening, what is coming our way.

05:55And even if they're of a different political persuasion,

05:58we need to call upon our empathy and not judge, but listen from our hearts.

06:06And welcome them into our tent.

06:09Because we are going to need a big tent to resist successfully what's coming at us.

06:23I made my first movie in 1958.

06:26It was the tail end of McCarthyism, when so many careers were destroyed.

06:33Today it's helpful to remember, though, that Hollywood resisted.

06:37We did.

06:39Overseas, brave American producers like Hannah Weinstein hired blacklisted writers.

06:46Myrna Lloyd, John Huston, and Billy Wilder founded the Committee for the First Amendment.

06:52They had a radio show on ABC radio called Hollywood Fights Back.

07:00Members of the committee included every big-name actor in town.

07:08Have any of you ever watched a documentary of one of the great social movements,

07:14like apartheid or our civil rights movement or Stonewall,

07:18and asked yourself, would you have been brave enough to walk the bridge?

07:24Would you have been able to take the hoses and the batons and the dogs?

07:30We don't have to wonder anymore, because we are in our documentary moment.

07:37This is it.

07:39And it's not a rehearsal.

07:45This is it.

07:48And we mustn't for a moment kid ourselves about what's happening.

07:54This is big-time serious, folks.

07:58So let's be brave.

08:00This is a good time for a little Norma Rae or Karen Silkwood or Tom Joad.

08:07We must not isolate.

08:09We must stay in community.

08:12We must help the vulnerable.

08:15We must find ways to project an inspiring vision of the future,

08:19one that is beckoning, welcoming,

08:22that will help people believe that, to quote the novelist Pearl Cleague,

08:26on the other side of the conflagration, there will still be love,

08:31there will still be beauty,

08:34and there will be an ocean of truth for us to swim in.

08:39Let's make it so.

08:42Thank you for this encouragement.
