You have expressed these concepts so perfectly and I really respect your passion. I have just finished a Community Services course and I am doing a Mental Health course right now. What you have shared in this video is what is being displayed in these courses, as the most important method of communication/therapy. Congratulation for keeping this strong and beautiful ripple going, I will be sharing this video once I figure out how.
People who continuously breaking laws are not matured. They need to be mentored and trained to be real men and women who will know how to handle issues affecting their lives. They need to be taught to love themselves and be positive all the time.
Gabriel Andrai I agree, unfortunately the fact that if you have a criminal record will cause about 80% of work to be removed from you. Once someone has reformed then the continued life restrictions are inhuman.
What an inspiration to social work students in Fiji who have second thoughts about working in the criminal justice systems!!! Thank you, Sir! Vinaka vakalevu!!!
Thank you so much. I'm so passionate about this because these are people's lives that are at stake. Everyone on the planet matters. Thank you for watching!
I have spent the majority of my life behind bars, honestly I was put here and no one seems to understand a word I say. I have spend time is restricted management unit, and would love to have share my perspective on the control group. Being 5 months old and wearing a diaper, and sleeping behind bars every night can be lonely. I am happy to find some one who understands my perspective.
one of the best ted talks I've heard brother, totally acknowledge and believe your words from my own life choices. keep up the good mahi bro, recognized all the down in New Zealand my bro. chur
Im imagining a world where kids are taught anger management and figuring out their emotions, starting from kindergarten and continously all the way up to H.S. graduation. Emotions are what cause tragedy, the method is not really the issue.. its the emotions leading to that event that caused it. If we're all taught to handle our emotions from a Dr. like Conte from early age, the crime rate would be ridiculously low in within one or two generations, in my opinion. I'd love to see a mandatory, yearly class dealing with psych and understanding our own emotions and how it causes us to act. That will save more lives than a cure for cancer, exponentially, every year, forever.
this is what needs to happen, everywhere, ASAP. more and more pain and suffering is on the way all across the US and other countries if we don’t do something NOW
Incredibly.motivating message. We can't just lock people up and toss the key because more often than not, those people return to society. Some will reoffend, obviously. However, the others that may be changed if given the right guidance and support can be productive to society. Some are just monsters and we can't change that. But most are humans that are reachable.
I'm so happy to hear Dr Conte give recognition to Pennsylvania prisons doing a great job to reduce recidivism, I work at a Pennsylvania State Prison and we work hard to reduce recidivism
Society doesn’t let people just serve their time and move forward. A record stays with a person and it’s so difficult for an offender to move forward. There needs to be reform that will truly give people a second chance. There is so much corruption and money made in prisons and innmates are truly the forgotten society ...
Your words are strong I once was told that we need thousands of you I’d be great then that the sound you give great seriously , thanks to you I’m going to try again I fell short myself I’m trying again ,thanks to your voice your wife is lucky to have you keep on stay strong too much bless
Dr. Conte, thank you. I hope more people will view your talk. What you said makes sense, but I feel it would be hard to implement! Some of our habits, biases, beliefs maybe in the way to make this work!
Good afternoon Dr. Christian Conte, this specific RUclips video is very inspirational to me personally since I think my younger brother Alexis Rodriguez BH6734 was recently interviewed by you. Hope you really meet him where he currently exists. Thank you very much. Respectfully Zeke R.
I wish the issues that this intelligent gentleman is speaking on were restricted to prison and inmates. His ideas would help fix a lot of the human interaction problems which prevent them from festering in bigger problems. We live as an intellectually lazy society made up of many individuals who prefer to label and dismiss people rather than feeling obligated to understand them and what this does to them. Dismissing another human being is the same basic mindset that allows criminals to do horrible things to others. And many of us do the same thing everyday. If it were possible, I would sentence everyone who wished to influence prison policy to a trial and a month of jail and prison where no one knew that you hadn't done anything. (Like undercover boss) Same for the mental health system. it is easier to have compassion as well as have an educated opinion when you've been on the other side of things.
I just spoke w lady husband doing 11 years relapse robbed a subway. I got robbed by gunpoint. Should he do 11 years. No. What think that does. Kids grow up without a dad. Maybe he'll not know how to be one when gets out so isolated institutionalized as if not already having trouble being one. I get that.
What happens when our government knowingly throws innocent people in jail for political or pre-crime purposes? What happens when it hurts people who didn't hurt anyone? What... What then? What do we do then? Since nobody punishes the government?
Thank you for this lecture! Are there any books that you recommend for those in prison that can help prisoners have a better outcome, making better choices in life?
Thank you so much. Honestly, the audience laughed a lot harder in person, and they emoted a lot, too. For some reason, you can hardly hear any audience reaction, which was much different than my experience when I was there. When I first saw this video, I actually also picked up on the discrepancy between what it was like being there live, and what seems to come across on this video. I feel like my mic sounds very loud and there was no mic on the audience. In any case, I put my heart and soul into what I do, and I sincerely appreciate your kind words. Sending you all my best and tons of peace!
Ever wonder why prison in other country less time and rehumanitize and get apartment behind fence works? Rehumanitize. As much as dont deserve u say. They don't recoffend on you. Do we just want to give correction a job? Why not less prison time. Why not correction officer trained in just that. More pay for c officer. Less money in rehabs bring it to prison. Maybe let c officer be someone with a record. That understand. Rehabilitated
The forgiveness project meet them where there at. No one's life was in vein. Take bad turn it for good. I'd take my life that's what I want understand them believe them probably something else going on help them .
Defaming a child isn't abuse. To haunt. Nope didn't do. Whatever. That part of it. Maybe get them adopt Kendra. What if it's true. Wtf. Words that keep out books. Put all mine in there.
If tell them they are. Without seeing state of mind all of it twice ..why not be that. Have i not said that? Rehumanitize. How did the mind games help. To hear it it doesn't matter to be scared like that. I say same thing. Yeah started pills over. Thought about. Twice in hospital. Yeah . I don't care or it didn't happen. No wonder feel alone
I keep trying say listen if really care stop happening again. Why is it only i think hide stuff? I never thought i ...... no one mourn with? You dont have the Time it takes work though it. ...
Needed investments, jobs centers, programs.that are needed. patern built for.just a sad thought of state of mind the system has for the majority, sorry thought. This system forgot the gov. Use us then somewhat expendible. Soldiers.
Didn't see still scared. But knows what said. And odd two people brainwashing? I have reasons think people do what others ask.........i know neighbor did. ... same day said ..i thought so all this was a game 2009. Without thinking. All games in head giving him away. I'm bitter too.
Watching this video, I felt Yogi Bhajan's 1st sutra stir in my spirit "Recognize the other person is you."
Powerful stuff, Dr Conte. Thank you!!

+PanJAM Thank you so much. I sincerely appreciate your kind words, and I definitely wish you much peace.
One of my favorite TEDx talks. So much insight and wisdom.

A very powerful and important message for everyone to integrate and internalize

Don't know why I am crying but I crying... We need to extend the grace and forgiveness we have been given.
I have spent the majority of my life behind bars, honestly I was put here and no one seems to understand a word I say.

+Buttareas Stinkovits Your perspective is valuable and worth sharing, so I hope you do share it. I wish you much peace.
Same here
yea we should probably not make cribs be physically similar looking to a prison.
You dont say why you were locked away from society
People: this was obviously a silly joke. You would know that if you had actually read it!
one of the best ted talks I've heard brother, totally acknowledge and believe your words from my own life choices. keep up the good mahi bro, recognized all the down in New Zealand my bro. chur
Thank you so much. Sending you all the best and much peace!
Just respect.... Any culture... Any race.. Any language... Kia Ora
I will digest and spread your words. Thanks

wow what a insight ..May God make us all understand this and love all humans without judgment,keep doing g the great work that you do ,God bless you
punishment solves nothing. If it did we'd have no crime by now.
Teaching compassion is the best we can do to prevent people to cause suffering.
Thank you for helping those in need
DAMN MAN LIKE THIS HIT HARD I LOVE LECTURES LIKE THIS

Lisa, your comment is so on point on so many levels.
Can we all admit mistakes??? Or scared what others think. I think it's admirable
There is no them, there is only US! Beautiful!!
Your words are strong I once was told that we need thousands of you I’d be great then that the sound you give great seriously , thanks to you I’m going to try again I fell short myself I’m trying again ,thanks to your voice your wife is lucky to have you keep on stay strong too much bless

thank you for this. please continue your work, as I plan to work alone those lines.
This is such an interesting and inspiring talk.
This guy is a great speaker. Very passionate about this subject and with a hard hitting message. Indeed, there is no 'them'.
Dr. Conte is BRINGING it. Great stuff.
This is wonderful lesson for all of us! Thank you very much!
Yes sir!!!
Good afternoon Dr. Christian Conte, this specific RUclips video is very inspirational to me personally since I think my younger brother Alexis Rodriguez BH6734 was recently interviewed by you. Hope you really meet him where he currently exists. Thank you very much. Respectfully Zeke R.
I agree with this man about meeting people where they are.
9:00 shame & guilt

This is so helpful to me. I just got fired yesterday because of that anger that was in me
Fantastic talk!
+robobin Thank you!
Used to cry high school. Crocodile tears. Like i couldn't. I run off. My feelings aren't real.
I just spoke w lady husband doing 11 years relapse robbed a subway. I got robbed by gunpoint. Should he do 11 years. No. What think that does. Kids grow up without a dad. Maybe he'll not know how to be one when gets out so isolated institutionalized as if not already having trouble being one. I get that.
Nice one Dr. Christian Conte. For anyone interested on his work on anger management he also provides amazing content on youtube.
Excellent! Love you brother!
he's right
Ripple of negative .equals. Ripple of positive. Equals
Excellent!
Great talk!! Thank you!!
amazing, thank you
And thousands people in prison that's been hurt.
let's go train Doc
What happens when our government knowingly throws innocent people in jail for political or pre-crime purposes? What happens when it hurts people who didn't hurt anyone? What... What then? What do we do then? Since nobody punishes the government?
GREAT EDUCATION!!!😮😮
only here cause i gotta write an essay on this for some community service thing ;-;
Very good discussion
Thank you for this lecture! Are there any books that you recommend for those in prison that can help prisoners have a better outcome, making better choices in life?
I have 3 panic attacks a day. You are my fave self help guy
Institutionalized adult time out centers. IATOC FOR SHORT.
The speaker is awesome, but the audience sucks. They don’t deserve him.

Time u don't have. I really thought ...not me. Alot to fix in time
Why do Americans call a lecturer a professor??
I ain’t a part of this grimy world. Don’t include me in that.
If nothing, may as well be. Second chances? Whatever. I love my job?
I'm not ready for all fix but working on it. But push it on jobs.
Just wasn't smart enough SEE only mind games before 2010. To late. SEE i feel bitter to.
Dr. Christian Conte, subscribe to him! ;)
I guess, then, you would know about relationships. Sucks that, soul-wise, we go through this to become Teachers. Convict Conditioning is.
Prison beats paying bills.

Do we just want to give correction a job? Why not less prison time. Why not correction officer trained in just that. More pay for c officer. Less money in rehabs bring it to prison.
