Back in the day, getting snatched up in the street wasnât abuseâit was love with a heavy hand. In this raw and unforgettable clip, legendary comedian and actress MoâNique shares a jaw-dropping story of how she got hit by a car while playing hide and seekâand instead of getting sympathy, she got her ass whooped⊠while bleeding. Then? She had to apologize to the driver.
This moment ainât just about a wild childhood memoryâitâs a powerful reflection on how Black communities used to raise kids, how the village kept us in check, and what weâve lost in todayâs hands-off parenting era. Mo’Nique takes us through Baltimore in the 80s, when your neighbor could smack you, your mama would double down, and nobody posted about it for clout.
She digs into accountability, community ethics, and the breakdown of cultural discipline with a spicy, heartfelt tone only she can deliver. If you’ve ever been told âfix your faceâ or got slapped with love, this one will hit your soul.
