“Your Solidarity Ignited Workers Around The World,” SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher Tells SAG Awards After Strikes & ‘Hot Labor Summer’
Dominic Patten at Deadline reports that three months after Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) ended its long and bitter Strike against the studios, Guild President Fran Drescher took a glamourous and humorous victory lap in front of some of her most notable Members over the weekend at the annual SAG Awards in Los Angeles. Thanking International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, “Teamsters and basic Crafts” at the top of her onstage remarks during the ceremony, Drescher also laid down a marker for what could be more labor unrest to come: “You took the heroes journey and stood at the front lines, Strike Captains led the march on the picket lines and we all showed up to the rallies because you understood what our massive contribution means to this marvelous industry. This was a seminal moment in our Union’s history that has set the trajectory for many generations to come.” Drescher - being Drescher, the Nanny star brought her own distinct style: “What does Female Leadership look like for Women and girls? We don’t have to emulate male energy but rather lead with intellect, compassion, wisdom - and still rock a red lip!”
