Mary J. Blige’s video for “Whole Damn Year”—from her great new album The London Sessions—features vignettes of abuse and violence. There’s a mother who cries at the memory of her partner’s assault in the presence of her daughter. There’s a bullied gay man, and there’s another woman who recalls locking herself in a bathroom to avoid being beaten by her dad.
