Seeing them all on stage is overwhelming

These women were so brave to tell their story and be a voice and I love that they are calling themselves survivors, not victims. Great job ladies!

“I believe in individualized sentencing, I follow the constitution, and I believe our system works. I also believe … these survivors.” Judge Rosemarie Aqualina is my hero. ❤️

And also in honor of those who didn't survive this tragedy 💞

Ally needs to be on the new USGA board of directors!

Seeing the empathy and hurt across the faces of all those big, strong athletes in the audience is so moving. They may be powerful and enormous and strong, but they're human like the rest of us. Aly Raisman is the reason I spoke about my abuse, and seeing the support and love in that audience is amazing. Athletes are people and, if you look down deep, I think you'll see that they're especially vulnerable.

The stage kept filling, and filling, - heartbreaking.

I feel like the unbelievable magnitude of their story really only set in when I saw girl after girl walk on stage in a line with no end in sight. It seemed to go on forever and it felt like the stage might not even hold them all, but I’m so glad they did it like this because it forces the audience and viewers at home to come face to face with just how many women were abused. Instead of just hearing the number of victims with no visual representation of how large a group of 2-300 women actually is and what it really looks like. It also made it personal, even more than it already was, putting faces to the names of the survivors and telling their individual stories so we don’t just see them as victims, but rather survivors who went through something absolutely horrible but made it out on the other side without compromising who they are. I’ve never been so proud of people I don’t know haha 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️😍 Also, Jennifer Garner was a perfect choice for this, she was amazing and you could feel how much she genuinely cares. This isn’t an easy topic or story to write an award show speech about but I thought she handled it with poise and compassion.

All you girls are awesome ! Bless all your souls !

ONE MAN. THREE HUNDRED VICTIMS&probably more. Manipulated, forced to stay silent & all because no one believed them. TURNED INTO STRONG SURVIVORS. because one person FINALLY heard them. wow. we will never truly fully understand the years of trauma, anxiety, depression , lost & etc. that these women went through in the hands of a vile monster. every story of each person was just as heartbreaking as the one before & after.

Completely in tears.

I woder how many celebrity sexual predators were in the audience?

When Aly states all the years that he was reported - that was sickening. It could have been stopped SO EARLY.

Seriously the judge is my hero

These are beautiful and inspiring women. I’m in tears.

Strongest army I’ve ever seen

Thanks very much for speak out and let us know we can not surrender and that we have a value greater than the world made us to think of

I followed this story for as long as it was on. Still follow the aftermath now. I watched the trial testimonies. But it wasn’t til this moment seeing not all of the victims but seeing all Of the women up there there the magnitude of it all hit me. Seeing the mass of them and realizing had just one person from back then listened or did something most if not all of those amazing woman would not be standing there. The sheer power of this moment is amazingly heart breaking and overwhelming. I am so damn proud of those woman.

Tears of joy!!! Super classy girls!!!! All I can say, is that every day he spends in prison will be a living hell!!!!!

I'm British and I hear you

Dear Karolyis, no matter how good ur techniques, how many awards u both have....its still not worth a thing when you were apathetic to such evil going on under your supervision!!!

I clap to them girls and that Judge

i just want hug them and they are so stong im happy he in prison where he belong right ?.

What are the names of the people they show here? Besides: Aly (Alexandra) Raisman, Jordyn Wieber, Kate Beckinsale, and David Harbour.

That photo at 2:35. I can only imagine what that gymnast was thinking in that photo. I wonder if she’s one of his many victims. Creepy.

Jennifer Garner looks like she put on a ton of muscle

I applaud the parents for having the strength not to do anything but stand by their sides. I on the other hand would probably in jail for doing to him what he so richly deserves. Heard today he was stabbed in prison. Lucky him that's all it was.

Where was Shawn in all of this?

13:51 is that Nastia?

Sorry don't know sports people in america but who is the women in gold after Aly spoke. Stealing the survivors applause!

I hear you, i was sexual abused, from birth to 13, by 2 family members I reported it at 13. It shattered my soul, heart,and trust Their are so many predators, if you see something report it , if there is nothing happening no harm done, but if there is something happening you just saved a child. I did speaking engagements for years, Im saying this to save a life
