In an introductory speech in Madison for anti-war British politician and author George Galloway, actress Jane Fonda will make her first public statement against the occupation of Iraq.
Fonda is scheduled to give her 20-minute introduction for Galloway, a member of Parliament, at the Wisconsin Union Theater Sunday, Sept. 18 at 7 p.m. She is also scheduled to speak the following night in Chicago as Galloway continues his national speaking tour.
Chris Dols, the local organizer for Galloway’s tour, said these two speeches are the only ones that Fonda will give with Galloway, who was expelled from the Labour Party after making remarks opposing the Iraq invasion in 2003.
