And then Roman says that Cinder's group is trying to change the world.

The way that Qrow talked about Raven seems like a setup for Raven's "interesting way of looking at the world" to have lead her to try to change the world. The reason it can't be Raven is also Qrow. For starters, Qrow did not show any alarm. If he believes his sister someone psycho enough to do something like attack practically the whole Vale Kingdom he would've sounded the alarm long ago, and we would see it on screen. Since he didn't, we have enough reason to assume that whatever business she has, it does not involve getting her daughter or her brother killed by her doing. It is one thing to not help when they're in trouble (because they should be responsible for taking that kind of risk in the first place) and another to actively try to murder them.

Also, Qrow mentioned already that Raven went away after meeting up with him, so the logical explanation is that she's there to discuss things to him. At this moment, in my opinion I have no reason to believe that Raven has anything to do with the invasion at all.
