Architecture and Homelessness: A Misguided Relationship | Rory Thomas | TEDxUniversityofManchester

[@livhayes608]

This was a great talk, not only highlighting an issue but presenting ways we can try and combat it even if only on an individual level. I'm glad somebody has dedicated their skills to such a worthy issue :)

Best talk on hostile architecture yet!

Some people have nothing better to do with their lives than to invent methods to hinder those in society who are the least of these. Keep up the hard work. God has a special reward for you

Robin Usher seems people often equate hostile architecture to cruelty and discrimination but often fail to recognize the effects it has on lay people which is social engineering and keeping everyone moving on the productive path of state capitalism.
