Intros seem to be a thing, so hi! I'm Sheera.

I'm a #professor of #comparativeliterature and #jewishstudies at #oberlincollege.

I work on modern Hebrew and Arabic #poetry, with an interest in the intersection of lit. and political crisis and the poet as public figure. Currently completing a book on the national poets of Palestine/Israel.

I'm a mama to a delightful 3 y/o.

I post about Palestine/Israel, motherhood, Jewishness, literature, academia, teaching, and my life. Also an avid deleter.

@stalpaz Uhhh, marharbin?
@thatchcolom marhabtain!
@stalpaz
Shakrhom Lahk (?) My students told me it was just Shakhrom
@thatchcolom close! It's "shukran," but you can say "shukran laki" (the you is female) or "shukran lak" (the you is male) or "alf shukran" (a thousand thanks).
@stalpaz ohhhhh I like Alf shukran. Is it “shuck” or “shook” rahn?
