Welcome!
I am Revan, and this is my Substack, a space where I hope to blend ruthless criticism of everything as it is with optimism that we can build internal opposition to and go beyond it! I’m a Naarm/Melbourne-based Turkish writer, passionate about dissecting the complexities of politics, cinema, and culture. Here, I often draw out the lesser-discussed connections between them.
Everything feels increasingly stale, so I strive to offer a challenging and spirited perspective in my writing while remaining open to dialogue. Join me!
