What it is like to have a baby in prison | Jessica Kent | TEDxIndianaUniversity

[lori]

Addicts shouldn't be put in jail. They need supportive rehab. Prison has become a profitable business.

After hearing some of your experience on an obgyn's channel I was disturbed just hearing how you were treated when pregnant, in labour, and post-partum. Congratulations on not only surviving that but getting sober and also on obtaining custody of your child.

It’s easy to judge. People should remember that every saint has a past, ever sinner has a future! Glad you got yourself sorted.

[Ahmad]

Congratulations Jess!! So proud of you ❤️ I started following Jess when she had 3k followers and now she has 500k and giving Ted Talks

[KittySkeed]

Okay but she deserved to be on a stage with an audience. I hope one day she will be. Love you Jess! You are an inspiration!

[billyalarie]

[pri.sci.lla.]

I always knew she would get a Ted talk! So happy for her

[libertyguest]

This blew me away! You are a incredible public speaker. Your message reached my soul. THIS message must be heard. THANK YOU!

[kimberlyewell]

Great talk Jess. Yes! For prison reform - to help heal those who are released from prison & become our neighbors.

[baileyclement]

Jess, you delivered this so elegantly.

[nrabinov]

And this country has the nerve to moralize to other countries about “human rights”.

[Bellavanacoffee]

Love this woman! She’s been through it and she is amazing.

[Bellucci-zysl]

This touched me alot. Thank you for speaking up about your experience and the horror you went through. We need to help and treat addicted people. These are living human beings. These conditions are horrible and inhuman in our otherwise, proclaimed "developed society". I wish you all the best and I hope you are well and your child aswell!

[micahjaee]

Been rooting for her for forever ahh I’m so proud of her

[Shegoesbyfe]

Not sure how I got to this video. But I’m glad I did. Thank you for sharing!

[lauratorres]

I am so happy that you shared your experience and be the voice of thousands of people who needs to be heard. Society should need to know the truth about jails.

[seekingeudaimonia]

Yes! You go Jess!
I can’t believe you have made it this far! I couldn’t imagine two year ago, you’d be here! Congratulations, you deserve it!
This women is ruthless in her pursuit of prison reform, and an amazing mom.

[nickcynn]

This was amazing, it really shows the holes in floor, the problems that have been swept under the rug cannot be forgotten

[Kate-hhyi]

This is what I want to do- fight for the right to birth process for these babies. This matters.
