The science-fiction film Barbarella (1968), directed by Frenchman Roger Vadim, her first husband, established Fonda as a sex symbol. Her marriage to Vadim, which lasted from 1965 to 1973, brought her into contact with left-wing intellectuals and may have had a role in her political radicalization, supporting the [[Civil Rights]] movement and opposing the [[Vietnam War]], particularly through involvement with the group Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW).  She was also a vocal supporter of the [[Black Panthers]].

In 1972, Fonda visited Hanoi, and was controversially photographed seated on an anti-aircraft battery, which angered many American supporters of the war.  In her 2005 autobiography she claimed she had been manipulated into posing in the photographs, and regretted that they had been taken.
