Actress and activist Jane Fonda spoke about ending white privilege and the protest over the deaths of George Floyd and others on CNN
Fonda notably showed up for the interview in a black sweater and black beret, an ostensible nod to the uniform of the Black Panther Party. Fonda was an outspoken supporter of and fundraiser for the Black Panthers in the Seventies, and, in the early Eighties, she adopted Mary Luana Williams, the daughter of two Black Panthers who could no longer care for her.
Elsewhere in her interview with CNN, Fonda said she believed the protests over the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and others weren’t nearly as violent as some of the media coverage has made them out to be. She said, based on what she’s seen and heard from other activists, the majority of protestors come from a diverse coalition of individuals and organizations that don’t want violence.
“I don’t know who the people are that are doing the violence, but I think what matters is, is that more and more people, white people, are getting it. When Donald Trump was elected [the] Band-aid was torn off and people could see very blatantly the racism in the country that’s always been there, but it was revealed in a new and more robust way to us and was encouraged by this administration. I think a lot of white people got it.
