Ravin Bhatia

Senior Lead Fellow

Ravin Bhatia (he/him) is a high school junior and Next Gen Senior Lead Fellow from Brookline, Massachusetts. As both a varsity Lincoln-Douglas and Public Forum debater, he appreciates just how necessary political discourse and healthy intellectual debate are in our current society, and enjoys hearing viewpoints (on almost any issue) contrary to his own. An editor for his school newspaper and a staff writer for The Progressive Teen, he has also published letters in The New York Times, The Boston Globe and The Washington Post, each about our country's current political climate. Ravin takes every opportunity he can to discuss politics and contentious issues with others, having limited opportunities to do so within his politically homogenous community, and is deeply excited for the provocative and profound discourse that the Fellowship will yield this year!
