And one of the organizers was the legendary actor and longtime activist Jane Fonda, who issued a very clear warning about what's at stake right now.

Joining me now is the one and only Jane Fonda, actor, activist, and founder of the Modern Committee for the First Amendment.

Jane Fonda, it is such a pleasure to be speaking with you.

I watched your event today.

We all watched your event today.

And I should note for the audience, you were in Washington, D.C.

today speaking outside the Kennedy Center for an event, this one I'm referring to, in defense of free expression.

So tell us about the event and the message you were really trying to get across to people watching.

Let me ask you about an aspect of this moment.

It's so challenging, but that is, I think, positive, which is the reaction, the activism we've seen out there.

You have been an activist

for so many years.

And we are now, tomorrow, the No Kings protest may be very well the biggest one yet we've seen during the Trump administration.

You're going to be appearing at the flagship rally in St.

Paul.

Why do you think the No Kings movement specifically has been really able to galvanize and energize so many people thus far?

It's creating a community, I think, that so many people need.

You became an activist, as I think anybody watching knows, but just to remind people, during the anti-war and civil rights movements, which were both, of course, very violent, incredibly tumultuous times in our nation's history.

But last year, you described the second Trump administration as the most frightening time of your life.

Just level set for people.
