"We here in America have watched in horror as our siblings in the U.K. have been attacked these past weeks and our president has been unable to offer so much as a word of condolence, only using this to push forward his racist and xenophobic agenda," wrote Dunham.

She added that Americans no longer have the option to "pretend" that what happens in Britain in America is separate.

"We must all work together to quell the tide of hate and complacency. Which is why, despite my US Passport, I desperately urge my U.K. friends/fans/frenemies to get out and vote for the Labour Party," Dunham continued.

She said that by voting for Corbyn, Brits have a chance at a "fair and just leader" who will "temper the fascism and darkness of our current American moment."
