5.

(n) (1) a variation of the Italian word for eggplant. (2) a person of direct African descent (a black person). Actually, this term has nothing to do with slavery, because Italians rarely if ever had black slaves, and most Italians were in favor of giving rights to blacks while the whites up in Northern Europe and America were still using blacks for labor and slave trades. The real origin of this slang word is unknown, but it is not as popular among Italians as the movies and white people suggest. Most people now that use the word "mooley" are white, not Italian.

Some Angry Guy: Yo, what's up with all these mulignans in my hood? Get outta here, ya mooley.

Some Guy With Sense: What the hell are you talking about? Stop saying "mooley", you asshole. You're not even Italian, you're white. And even if you were Italian, it be even more ignorant to be rascist towards blacks, considering Italians aren't white and are closely related to blacks. Italians and blacks should be brothers.
