Jane Fonda is a political activist

What Can I Do? is far from the first book Fonda has ever written. In her earlier days, Fonda authored several fitness and lifestyle books. Her autobiography My Life So Far was a #1 New York Times Bestseller. Fonda also stepped into the ring of political activism long ago.

Time Magazine states that Fonda has publicly supported the Black Panthers, championed several Native American causes, protested the Vietnam War, and spoken out against Donald Trump. She also fights for legislation to combat climate change. She and her Grace and Frankie co-star Sam Waterston were arrested several years ago at a climate change rally.

Fonda’s latest book

Fonda released her latest book in September of last year. According to Google Books, What Can I Do? is a call to action “urging us to wake up to the looming disaster of climate change and equipping us with the tools we need to join her in protest.” Fonda covers a variety of issues in her book to help readers get started in combating the climate crisis.

Proceeds for the book are donated to the environmental organization, Greenpeace. Recently, Fonda announced that her book will be available in paperback. Fans were excited by the selfie she posted for more reasons than one.
