Comedienne/Actress Mo’Nique won the Golden Globe for Best Performance by a Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture for the movie “Precious.”

The actress said that her winning the Golden Globe will raise more awareness to the prevalence of child abuse:

“I think for so long we have swept it under the carpet. For so long, when it is time to deal with that issue, and when it is time to deal with molestation inside the home, we walk away from it and we don’t address it,” she said backstage. “So, oftentimes we live [with] those demons and are not really dealing with it. So we continue to have a damaged life, and it is time to stop that. It is time for us to heal and be survivors and no longer be victims.”
