A reframing of the Wall Street bailout protests as a need for a collectivist, urban movement by leading social theorist David Harvey, Professor of Anthropology at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. FBR presents Battle of the Bailout, an exploration of the urban artistic and activist movements as they rally against exploitative control as the dominant political system. From the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, to the financial market collapse and 850 billion dollar bailout, and the culture of fear in the United States, Harvey calls for the urban movement to collectivize and recognize their right to the city as a fight for the city. Based on the writings of Henri Lefebvre as presented by Harvey . Includes footage of the September 25th No Bail Out actions on Wall Street, featuring members of Code Pink and UFPJ and David Harveys speech at the Creative Time Democracy in America exhibit. Also includes the anarchist ice cream truck from the Center for Tactical Magic as a tool for social engagement.

  • did it look like the statue was giving code pink the finger?

  • this is the only time i will agree with code pink

  • Just because all of you zionist illuminati crooks are headed to HELL doesn't mean that we are going with you in this life too. Any country that is stupid enough to put God's name on money is in big trouble. Do you think God cares about MONEY? There is no conspiracy theories anymore except the empirical evidence which supports conspiracy FACTS. Less than 1% of our population want to kill, rape, deceive and harm the other 99%.

  • You'd be Played-A-Fool voting for the RepubliCrat$ again!

    Democrat and Republican are essentially the same.

    We've had plenty of time to see, they are corrupt.

    NADER/Gonzalez = WE the PEOPLE

    Democrat/Republican partY = THEY the CORPORATION$

  • The Writing Is On The WALL $treet BailOUT!

    The Bailout is taxation without representation or consultation!

    > Democrat/Clinton deregulated and caused this mess.

    > Republican/Bu$h blank check bails the crooks out.

    Millions of Americans have no health care but, RepubliCrat$ partY throw money away into the Wall Street speculator gambler void!

    Vote NADER/Gonzalez 08!
