In order to build trust, courts need to treat the communities they serve with dignity and respect, says judge Victoria Pratt. In this sweeping conversation focused on humanizing the justice system -- from law enforcement to court hearings -- Pratt details how procedural justice gives people the opportunity to be heard and explains how it can help break the cycle of incarceration with clarity, equity and empathy. (This conversation, hosted by TED current affairs curator Whitney Pennington Rodgers, was part of an exclusive TED Membership event. Visit ted.com/membership to become a TED Member.)
