Defining Radical Urbanism and Moving Forward

Typical Sunday, strolling around the internet looking at the usual mix of cat videos and radical politics, I found this gem. Some of the most-often cited theorists today who work on issues of social justice in the city present what they think it means to be have a radical urban agenda. They all rock quite a bit. Here are a few conversation points the video brings up, that I think are worth discussing as we move forward, trying to bring theory into action:
      
          1. What makes a radical agenda different from a liberal agenda? How would this play out on          the ground?
          2. Who stands to lose power in this struggle? How can we convince them of an alternative view?
          3. The financial system is global. How do grassroots organizers work against a global system? Do we encourage transnational organizing? How? How similar are revolutionary goals around the world?
          4. What kind of potential lies in what Harvey calls the "legitimation crisis?"How can this potential be activated?

Enjoy the video, and as always, conversing in the comments is what it's all about
