"There's a story we've been afraid to see and hear about ourselves in this industry," Jane Fonda said at the Golden Globes on Sunday night. "A story about which voices we respect and elevate and which we tune out, a story about who's offered a seat at the table and who is kept out of the rooms where decisions are made."
An actress, producer and documentarian — as well as an entrepreneur, activist and author — Fonda, 83, has spent six decades in Hollywood, winning two Oscars and seven Golden Globes, among countless other awards. She's has been arrested many times for her activism, which has spanned anti-Vietnam war efforts to, more recently, climate change.
But on Sunday, she focused her speech on a singular effort: inclusion.
Notably, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the organization of international journalists which organizes the Golden Globes, does not have a single Black member.
"We recognize we have our own work to do," HFPA Vice President Helen Hoehne said Sunday night in an attempt to address the controversy. "Just like in film and television, Black representation is vital. We must have Black journalists in our organization."

Jane Fonda?
ISGAS.
(I Scarcely Give A .....)
What a bastardly bunch are we. Especially the commie liberals.
She’s 83. Only the good die young.
When will that American Traitor B*tch shuffle off this mortal coil?
Jane Fonda is a POS but so called ‘diversity’ is not the pinnacle of human existence. In fact ‘diversity’ is destructive.
Total nonsense. Typical lying Hollyword people.
Vietnam Vet
You know, it would be hilarious to watch a Hollywood’s woke monster turn and eat it’s virtue signaling handler.
She has been the enemy of goodness for decades.
Afraid? It’s all they talked about. BORING
Who is she trying to kid?
Seen any advertisements lately on TV?
You’d think the U.S. is at least 80-90% black.
Ditto for newspapers. I was looking at the advertising yesterday and it was the same thing - for Target, WalMart, etc. I didn’t see any families that looked like mine.
And, finally, did anyone watch the Emmys - or even care?
Those two should have either served long sentences in jail for treason (at worst) and at best, be given the traditional sentence for treason.
But since then, Treason is no longer a crime. It will not be punished.
Unless you are a conservative.
afraid = guilty
Jane - you are white.
You are now the enemy in Hollywood
She’s old and already cashed in on all her privilegie. Her real privilege was being the daughter of Henry Fonda. I am wondering if she’s feeling any guilt for that? She was pretty attractive in her day and that didn’t hurt her career. She should feel privilege over that too because ugly women didn’t get such opportunities. She should apologize for being white, the daughter of a successful actor, and being pretty attractive.
The nonsense will never end. :>(
I am 65 and grew up seeing movies in the 1960’s. Back then Liked Jane Fonda and her movies, long before she turned into the Radical Leftie she did. hey were fun, carefree, light comedies , and some good dramatic roles and lots of us had crushes on her then. Today I may watch one of those 60’s films, but the stuff after the she become so Left I can leave . I happen to think “KLute” is one overrated film with her fellow leftie Donald Sutherland.
Why do I find Eddie Murphy, Dave Chapelle, Denzel Washington entertaining?
Uhmmmm....cuz they are
Why am I attracted to Halle Berry, Tyra Banks, Gabrielle Union, Janelle, Zoe Kravitz, Zoe Saldana or any other woman?
They just beautiful
Is it? Why? In the Hollywood Foreign Press Association....
She must have sold her soul to the devil.
