Jane Fonda told ABC last week she would hold weekly protests in DC on climate change: 'I'm moving here. I'm going to be here through Thanksgiving, and Christmas, sleep, rain, whatever it is...This is a crisis.' Fonda is back in front of the Capitol now.
Academy Award winning actress Jane Fonda, 81, was arrested by police with a group of about a dozen protesters Friday after being warned repeatedly to leave the steps of the U.S. Capitol.
"11 o'clock every Friday morning come get arrested with me or choose not to it doesn't matter," told ABC News in an earlier interview about her planned effort. "They're saying, 'Come on, you know, you're taking our future away from us. We need -- we need you to support us.' And so grandmas unite," she said."I want to stand with them and raise up... their message. This is -- this is serious... This is a crisis unlike anything that has ever faced humankind."
The esteemed actress pushed back against criticism that Hollywood's presence could make climate change a more polarizing issue. While she's been passionate about this issue for"decades," she credits her current endeavors on Thunberg's recurring protest outside Swedish parliament, and other student climate strikers around the world for taking on this issue so passionately.
