She added: “We’re all trying to figure out, how do you fix this? How do you stop this? And I think we have to figure out how to change people’s hearts, and that’s what I’ve been trying to do my whole career.”
Haddish opening up about her fears about motherhood comes after she recently made a passionate speech at a Black Lives Matter protest in Los Angeles where she opened up about her own experiences with police brutality and racial inequality.
And she later admitted she lost “a bit of [her] soul” when she was raped by a police cadet.
While she didn’t give any details of the assault, which happened when she was 17, Haddish admitted she went on to have a series of relationships with men working in law enforcement in order to get “revenge.”
She explained: “I dated a police officer, a judge, a lawyer. I dated several different kinds of dudes, thinking, ‘Oh if I date them, they’ll love me and they’ll try to help me with my crusade of getting justice for my family and myself.’ But they was like, ‘nah.'”
Haddish found “nobody really helped” her get the justice she was looking for and admitted the attack was a “traumatizing” experience that “messed up” her ideas of sex and relationships.
