Amid the impeachment drama, on Nov. 26, Nancy Pelosi (SpeakerPelosi) and oliviawilde discussed powerful women, whether Hollywood activism helps or hurts and how to take down 'whatever that is in the White House'
One's the speaker of the house, the other's a filmmaker-actress-activist and daughter of a Democratic politico. Amid the impeachment drama, they spoke Nov. 26 about powerful women, whether Hollywood activism helps or hurts and how to take down"whatever that is in the White House."
What I learn from this conversation is that our speaker of the house has no time for whining and needs all of us to "stop agonizing and start organizing." It's not about asking for a seat at the table, it's about sitting at the "head of the table," she says. And the most important thing? "Know your why."
Let me just say, we all were in awe of your mother. She knew why she was running and had the courage to get out there and do it. This is not for the faint of heart, as you observed. So congratulations to her for a great race. She may not have won, but she certainly won the campaign by demonstrating her "why": why she was running, what she knew about and cared about, how she wanted to get something done, and just making a beautiful connection to the people of that district.
They got wonderful committee assignments, and I am proud to say that 10 of them have a gavel. They are chairs of subcommittees or of committees. Not only do they have a seat at the table, they have a seat at the head of the table in many cases. So I don't think you wait around for people to be ready. Power has never been given to anybody. You go out there, you show them why. What is your vision for America? What is your knowledge about what you want to present? What is your strategic thinking on how you're going to get things done? And how do you connect? Just as your mom did in her race, but in a larger sense to the whole country. Just take your message to the country.
It's cliche, but it is a fact: The fate of our nation is riding on this election. We must win. Our democracy is at stake because of some of the things this president has done. We have heard people say from time to time, this is the most important election of our time. Well, this one really is. I have seen such dedication, like last week, we were with Richard Gere, and of course he has devoted most of his life to Tibet, so when he comes to speak about it and to its Zen philosophy and the following of the Dalai Lama, it's so impressive and it does attract attention.
I do believe that the arts unify our country [with ideas] conveyed in film or a photo or music. It's a place where we laugh together, cry together, we're inspired together, we forget our differences. I'm depending on the arts to be the unifying [factor].
