The actress blamed the climate issue on a ‘manifestation of racism, misogyny and patriarchy’
Liberal actress Jane Fonda appeared at multiple high-profile events this week to promote her climate activism.
The 86-year-old Fonda, who has been arrested while participating in past climate protests, tried to rev up famous faces at a Beverly Hills fundraiser against big oil in California, and later in the week, educate college students at USC Annenberg that the climate crisis is a “manifestation of racism, misogyny and patriarchy.”
She also apologized to young people, saying, “I’m sorry that we’ve created this issue for you.”
Fonda’s first event was a star-studded fundraiser she hosted to raise money to keep California from overturning SB 1137, a bill Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., signed in 2022 that bars new oil and gas wells from being built within 3,200 feet of homes, hospitals, nursing homes and schools.
