I think that her message to treat everyone with respect is important. People are innocent until proven guilty. We treat innocent people with respect, and we should never assume guilt before proven guilty. That should include judges above all other people.
She is asking for judges (who are also just people) to switch off their subconscious view of people. But is maybe the case that people who are disrespecting the judge are treated with less respect as a consequence, not the other way around? People with low self-esteem tend to suffer from the negative selffulfilling prophecy of failure. Their mental dialogue goes like this: „I‘m innocent, but I bet this motherf*king judge ain‘t gonna believe me, he probably a goddamn racist anyway“. The judge sees the attitude and *respects* the sublime wishes he receives.
Easily one of my favorite TED talks, she was well-spoken, encouraged and educated, knew when to crack jokes and had an all around beautiful personality and amazing message to spread.
Facts: Our Sister, Victoria Pratt from Newark, NJ was a brilliant and respected attorney and she has continued that tradition as Judge Pratt. And I get the essence of her talk is about humanizing a system that can all too often be cruel and dehumanizing. Kudos Judge Pratt.👍🏾
The comments say this is leftist agenda, but I'm not sure they got past the title. I think this is something most right leaning people would actually appreciate. It's about seeing people as individuals and making court proceedings understandable for those who may not understand courts.
I may be considered to be right-leaning (since I don't wish to lean left), but I watched the whole video. She has some great points. I understand the importance of respect when it comes to public servants in any form. The justice system (at least here in the UK) is full of people who lack respect for the individuals they deal with on a daily basis. It breeds a lack of respect for the system itself. I'm not saying I don't recognise what the public servants have to put up with, which can take a massive toll on their psyche. This needs addressing too. The lack of respect within the system is a vicious cycle and only serves to mitigate the purpose of *justice,* which is to solve societal problems through forcing people to reform themselves. If people lack respect for the system, they'll most likely (and do) commit crimes again and again, but usually to a higher degree the next time. I recognise that respect is a two-way thing. It cannot be gained if it isn't given. It's the mutual agreement between two or more parties to not treat others as subordinates and to speak to each other on a level playing field. It works both ways, though. If the suspect doesn't give respect, then it can't be given in return. Still, there must be the recognition that most people who go through the justice system are there for a reason - *that reason is the root cause* and must be found out so the problem can be solved. It can only be found out if the person is willing to talk to the public servants. This can't happen if a psychological brick wall of intimidation is put up in front of them. EDIT: Han Swolo -- Simply claiming "respect is earned, not given" and claiming that "[it] applies here as it does everywhere else" is a little misguided. Have you taken into consideration the whole picture of what 'justice' is meant to be about? i.e. Problem-solving. Simply applying a phrase that appears to have meaning within it to every single situation doesn't mean that it's the right way of doing things. There may be some meaning in that particular phrase when it comes to individual circumstances, but life is a lot more complex. If it were possible to apply simple phrases to every single situation, we'd be living in a Utopia already after having solved some of the world's greatest problems. P.S. **does some Autistic screeching for your pleasure**
I am so thankful for her giving my criminal Justice class a lecture at my university! Very eye opening and inspiring me to keep pushing so I can be the change I want to see!
The TED talks are always interesting. Thank you for posting them. But there is one thing I'd like to suggest when posting them here. Please include a link to the specific talk on the TED site (if available). I can read much faster than the people talk, and I prefer to read the interactive transcript, and just watch the parts that look very interesting. Normally, in fact, if I see that the video has been posted here, I search the TED site for the video. This isn't a huge burden, of course, but including the link here would be convenient for me and others like me. Thanks.
It's not about seeing things according to the law. LAW=L-Like A W-ar It is more of being responsible,sensitive and causious, let alone respectful in handling the imnence power if the LAW LAW=L-ove A-nd W-isdom Bless you judge Victiria Pratt
Thank you so much for your share. It was so powerful I almost teared up at times. You are beautiful and strong woman. Thank you for the difference you make.
"Serving a life sentence, 30 days at a time," sent chills down my spine. Listening to her speak made me feel a little regret about not finishing law school. I feel like no-nonsense judges; those who simultaneously show unbiased compassion to the defendants and unwavering commitment to the rule of law - are a vital part of a criminal justice system whose purpose and product is the betterment of society, and the rehabilitation of those who have transgressed against the social contract at the heart of this great nation.
I have worked forensics and i can agree with many of the points this presenter makes. I do believe the large number of dislikes is because of the clients opening statement and story regarding what appeared to me a rude transsexual. Respect needs to be earned by common decency is to be given to everybody. Many people in the court rooms can never be reformed and they pollute the atmosphere and those who work in courts (1 bad apple) but it is up to those who deem out justice to rise above that and act in a way that lowers crime the most.
yes i agree. i wish i could take this point and teach it to the Navy. we have such a disrespect of everyone in the Military. They are treated so poorly. The Chiefs are rude, rude and very insulting. No one cares that abuse happens in the there. I love the principles she shared. It would most definalty make a difference to someone.
I didn't watch the whole video though lmao, it was is safe to assume the narrative or theme that was going on as the title description, and a general viewing implied. _So much for 'Don't judge a book by it's cover.'_ I don't have to say much more, you pretty much said what I said.
Can we talk about how we need to reform our judicial system? Judges have too big of egos and too few means to be removed (especially at the federal level).
Vitoria's video is not actually directed at judges, I think it's directed at authority figures in general and parents in particular. She's saying in her job as a judge this way of behaving works and this way of behaving could work in your role as a parent too. I'm convinced it's very applicable in the treatment of social housing tenants. The last comment was directed at the lazy, incompetent narcissists at Whitefriars.
To the good folks on the right, that is the place is where you might be after a self-defense use of firearm. Yes, we all need a fair and friendlier legal system, regardless the belief, how carful and right minded we are.
About 30 minutes into the video. I am in no way authoritarian, liberal but I really dont think this is what everyone in the comments says it is. Wondering if people even watched the video? Because they're arguing points not in it.
Hello Judge Victoria Pratt I don't know if you read these comments but I just saw a video that you were in. And the last name struck a cord with me because my last name is Pratt also. I know I know first or last names people have the same name but I was just wondering could we be related. As far as I can remember on my father's side from Virginia D.C. just wondering
I don't know what you thought about the title, I remembered different shows and competitions and thought that it could be about objective in judging of the contestants
When love and respect are shown, everything is possible. Stop letting cities criminalize mental health, homeless and poverty. We are all taxpayers, Whether it's from work or paying for tools, fast food, automotive work, the government should uplift our communities with the income we tax payers provide. For the betterment of all.
Many ignorant comments above. What Ms Pratt speaks about here is a major problem in our courts. I would welcome Honorable Pratt to spearhead this idea within all our court rooms especially Family Court. We are treated like criminals even if we didn’t break the law. Judges believe they are God, they are immune, and many enjoy punishment rather than support. We need to RESOLVE the problem instead of punish for the problem. This judge is 100% spot on! Honorable Pratt, I am an advocate and activist in northern New Jersey who would be happy to speak about further ways we can work to implement your ideas throughout the state!! Contact me at chris.sirgant.restoringfreedom@gmail.com. Thank you for all you do!!
People are supposed to be thought of as innocent until proven guilty. However, if you do not have money you can be held indefinitely, guilty or not. There is no respect in that, and your dignity is not acknowledged. I hope other judges can perceive the message in this video.
Justice cries water dries desert sand! We Americans welcome Caribbean's teaching respect, and foreigners may not think of USA as terrorist. R-E-S-P-E-C-T!
The idea that people need special treatment to obey the law is ludicrous. Perhaps they would earn such respect by not breaking the law in the first place.
Han Swolo Respect is not "special treatment" it's basic human nature. Just because people broke the law doesn't mean that they're bad people. Sometimes their backs are against the wall and they have no other way out, or maybe a temporary lapse in judgement.
"The idea that people need special treatment to obey the law is ludicrous." You're correct to an extent. In principle, people should try to obey the laws of the country they reside in (within reason). But this fails to take into account the human condition. The pragmatic observation that people are less likely to commit crimes if the courts put in a little effort to treat them well, should indeed be an important consideration if a reduction in crimes is a goal you wish to achieve. "Perhaps they would earn such respect by not breaking the law in the first place." The problem with that attitude is that you begin with the assumption that the law has been broken, and that this person did it, when that hasn't been established yet, otherwise what is the purpose of having a court at all? Innocent until proven guilty etc.
Han Swolo Judges are given a wide latitude in everything they do from the bench including how to deal with the accused. If this judge's approach is empirically better then it's a no brainier.
Being whoever you want have never been easier, put on a skirt as a male and you're a strong independent woman. I'm already considering the transition to absorb the benefits for single moms.
There are two types of respect. The one driven by compassion for others and the driven by an overweening ego. Judge Pratt had the later. She ha fired more people (mostly women) in her short time as judge for the NMC than any other judge. She was always demanding respect but was vert stingy with hers.
So this is a talk for judges? I'm sure this doesn't apply to most of us. Also, the justice system is corrupt. We don't care about respect. We want fairness.
No, I think this is not the general way. Infront of a transgender prostitute who was just doing her job like anyone else, it is wrong to bring her to a court. Having respect before anyone else who has conducted a crime is correct. As hard as it is to pay respect.
You can be sued without having committed any crime. You can be interrogated by the police even if you didn't committed any crimes. The justice system is not perfect. Mistakes are made.
oaxacachaka There are a lot of people who lose that are innocent. The justice system is fucking broken. This is why we have people whose jobs are to help innocent people get out of jail. There's another Ted Talk about that.
Bring your problems to the benevolent state, the Police are your friends, the judiciary will protect you from yourself. Confide in us, do not resist, acquiesce, admit your guilt, do not fight, please do not fight LOL what a load of bollacks
I watched until about 7:15. The tangents and theatrics make it impossible to discern whatever point she's trying to make. The paragraph explanation in the description is infinitely better than the lecture.
That's right, Lunar Bloodmoon. I don't have to respect you in the least, because you haven't earned the privilege yet! This post of yours proves that fact loud and clear. I've earned such a privilege, so whenever I disrespect you, there isn't a thing you can do about it. And you must respect my perspective due to my earning! To be serious, but humorous at the same time, the next quote might be from a rough caricature of yourself, Lunar Bloodmoon: "Mama always said, life's like a box of jelly donuts; you never know which one's gonna be jelly-filled." This is Copyrighted by myself.
I think that her message to treat everyone with respect is important. People are innocent until proven guilty. We treat innocent people with respect, and we should never assume guilt before proven guilty. That should include judges above all other people.
The judge needs to dispense justice, not make people feel special. This is not a safe space, it is a courtroom.
Han Swolo
Completely irrelevant to the topic at hand.
Dimetropteryx completely relevant. The judge should act professionally but not need to go out of their way to pander to the needs of the accused
She is asking for judges (who are also just people) to switch off their subconscious view of people. But is maybe the case that people who are disrespecting the judge are treated with less respect as a consequence, not the other way around? People with low self-esteem tend to suffer from the negative selffulfilling prophecy of failure.
Their mental dialogue goes like this: „I‘m innocent, but I bet this motherf*king judge ain‘t gonna believe me, he probably a goddamn racist anyway“. The judge sees the attitude and *respects* the sublime wishes he receives.
Han Swolo
Completely irrelevant. Showing respect and acting professionally are mutually inclusive, not mutually exclusive.
Easily one of my favorite TED talks, she was well-spoken, encouraged and educated, knew when to crack jokes and had an all around beautiful personality and amazing message to spread.
Facts: Our Sister, Victoria Pratt from Newark, NJ was a brilliant and respected attorney and she has continued that tradition as Judge Pratt. And I get the essence of her talk is about humanizing a system that can all too often be cruel and dehumanizing. Kudos Judge Pratt.👍🏾
She is from MONTCLAIR, NJ and I know because I sat in class with her and have the year books to prove it.
Thank you for giving people a fair shot and voice. Some don’t even ever get that in their own home. ❤️
The comments say this is leftist agenda, but I'm not sure they got past the title. I think this is something most right leaning people would actually appreciate. It's about seeing people as individuals and making court proceedings understandable for those who may not understand courts.
Following the fucking law and assuming innocent until proven guilty doesn't need you to be respectful to subjects.
Leland Martineau I think the right-leaning people here only appreciate the thumbnail...
If you don't respect them, it's unlikely you really assume they are innocent until proven guilty.
Have you ever heard the phrase "respect is earned, not given"? This applies here as it does everywhere else

Thank you.

Amazing and powerful delivery. She deserves way more views!
Wow 😳 what an awesome speaker and I'm glad she's in the community. She's real.
The culture of respect is a fine thing indeed. Respect is a vital thing, all good things start with respect.
Just saw Judge Pratt on the Tamron Hall show and was surprised to hear she's from my hometown of Newark, NJ. Go, girl ✊🏾
I am so thankful for her giving my criminal Justice class a lecture at my university! Very eye opening and inspiring me to keep pushing so I can be the change I want to see!
speakers like this are empowering our culture. more power to y'all
Omg it was an honor to know her in 2017. So kind, amd respectfull

Thank you so much for your share. It was so powerful I almost teared up at times. You are beautiful and strong woman. Thank you for the difference you make.
She’s beautiful. Thank you for informing us.
Everybody deserves to be treated with courtesy. Respect however is a very different thing, and must be earned.
"Serving a life sentence, 30 days at a time," sent chills down my spine. Listening to her speak made me feel a little regret about not finishing law school.

I listen to your TED Talk every day. I agree with your idea of justice.

If people believe they aren't being treated fairly, they won't obey the law, and that falls to many logical fallacies in psychology.
I didn't watch the whole video though lmao, it was is safe to assume the narrative or theme that was going on as the title description, and a general viewing implied.
_So much for 'Don't judge a book by it's cover.'_
I don't have to say much more, you pretty much said what I said.
Law has to be spoken in everyday language, for everyone to understand.
Justice Pratt is a great woman!
This the most inspirational thing I have seen in a long time...
I love love love this!
A progressive judge. Fair law, we need.
Things like THIS are why I subscribe.
You are a kind person your parents taught you Good value I am inspire by this video
gotta respect the value of the individual
Thank you for this lovely talk
Women really make a difference to our community. Keep it up!
Increible . . .
Well I'm crying dunno about anybody else
Where is the Technology Education and Design (TED) in this?
James Gray, uh, no...
Ótimo video.
Nos fazem refletir, sobre como tratar o próximo.
Be respectful, even if you are in a position of authority. This seems like something that doesn't need to be a TED talk.
But it does.
This seems like a thing that doesn't need to be told. At all. And yet, it needs. a
lot.
Brian Boudreaux respect it a privilege, not a right
"Ha, it's different because we got a BLACK WOMAN to speak COMMON SENSE!"
Brian Boudreaux Sadly, it does. We live in a world of hate and prejudice.
Know this lady...she is awesome 🙏🏾

Can we talk about how we need to reform our judicial system? Judges have too big of egos and too few means to be removed (especially at the federal level).
Here come da judge! And about time.
It's not really SJW. Just really saying if your nice to people- even if you don't like them - your more likely to get what you want. Or a good result

Heres an idea how about how to avoid court
Ryan Mackenzie Do you not realize that innocent people can be sued? Take the H3H3 case for example. They were accused, then proven innocent.
Ryan I hope you never have to deal with a court when you haven't done anything wrong. Things can happen that are just unavoidable.
Awesome !
I don't think TED is bullshit now, as many people say. It's just the audience that's getting dumber
Rilow Agreed.
Most people would rather comment than listen. same old bad behavior in a new platform.
Lucky you.....being Two-Faced is hard

Where is the irrational SJW in this? I don't see it. Someone point it out.
The idea that accused people need to be treated special by judges is ludicrous. Judges are there for justice, not counseling.
Han Swolo Judges are given a wide latitude in everything they do from the bench including how to deal with the accused. If this judge's approach is empirically better then it's a no brainier.

My english lesson. I' m comming.
There are two types of respect. The one driven by compassion for others and the driven by an overweening ego. Judge Pratt had the later. She ha fired more people (mostly women) in her short time as judge for the NMC than any other judge. She was always demanding respect but was vert stingy with hers.
Hi
The great discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his attitude (Oprah Winfrey).
So this is a talk for judges? I'm sure this doesn't apply to most of us. Also, the justice system is corrupt. We don't care about respect. We want fairness.
godhead Respect can lead directly to fairness.
respect has nothing to do with fairness. respect is earned. fairness should be given.
No, I think this is not the general way.
Infront of a transgender prostitute who was just doing her job like anyone else, it is wrong to bring her to a court.
Having respect before anyone else who has conducted a crime is correct. As hard as it is to pay respect.
*_"I am the daughter of a Dominican hairdresser"_*

why call cour because is games in the cour not all laws are good anyway is alll about money to paid big fat money
Now imagine if black people had respect for Judges, or the law for that matter
Spoken like someone who has 0 understanding of race relations in the U.S, or the history of discrimination.
Spoken like someone who removes agency from people they consider too simple to have it

Please, enlighten me how you came to that conclusion.
Wrong !!! Whip and the shackle !!! ONLY thing I learned in my life. NO WONDER so many re-offenders. My opinion.
Reply me
I wonder if the drug addict guy and schizophrenic lady were non-black.
Don't commit crimes and you will be treated with respect.
You can be sued without having committed any crime. You can be interrogated by the police even if you didn't committed any crimes. The justice system is not perfect. Mistakes are made.
you win the lawsuit if you didn't commit a crime and being talked to harassed by police to a certain extant is what is known as a necessary evil.
oaxacachaka There are a lot of people who lose that are innocent. The justice system is fucking broken. This is why we have people whose jobs are to help innocent people get out of jail. There's another Ted Talk about that.
Even if the people did commit crimes, being respectful is a reflection of you, not them.
Dan Murphy respect can be lost. Being a criminal is one way to lose that respect.
Bring your problems to the benevolent state, the Police are your friends, the judiciary will protect you from yourself. Confide in us, do not resist, acquiesce, admit your guilt, do not fight, please do not fight LOL what a load of bollacks
What are you going on about?
Go back to sleep mate
The thesis should be upfront, instead of some random story with a bad accent. It's like three minutes in before she defines what she's talking about.
Judging people on their accent. I guess you did stop before the 3 minutes mark.
I watched until about 7:15. The tangents and theatrics make it impossible to discern whatever point she's trying to make. The paragraph explanation in the description is infinitely better than the lecture.
It was pretty clear to me. I guess her delivery is not for everybody, but she has great points.
We don’t have to treat anyone with respect. Respect is a privilege, not a right
You say that as if you're someone worth respecting lol
That's right, Lunar Bloodmoon. I don't have to respect you in the least, because you haven't earned the privilege yet! This post of yours proves that fact loud and clear.
I've earned such a privilege, so whenever I disrespect you, there isn't a thing you can do about it. And you must respect my perspective due to my earning!
To be serious, but humorous at the same time, the next quote might be from a rough caricature of yourself, Lunar Bloodmoon:
"Mama always said, life's like a box of jelly donuts; you never know which one's gonna be jelly-filled."
