WIKIPEDIA: According to the Bible, Galilee was named by the Israelites and was the tribal region of Naphthali and Dan, at times overlapping the Tribe of Asher's land.

Eval: Shal~om-Shal~om,
Sorry for the delayed response to your tweet to contribute to JN magazine (I am not on twitter), but I was just wondering: do you accept poetry, occasionally?
Since last year, I have focused mainly on the Japanese genre of Haiku and have not submitted much, but the few places I have answered calls can be gleaned there {including links to previous incarnations of writing samples}: http://asherleaks.weebly.com/
I have been conducting novice research on Jews of Color, since circa '07, with a concentration on Pin@y Hudyos: https://www.blogger.com/profile/08593237857512480573
I am also willing to provide articles on a monthly basis, although my prose ~ or so I've been told ~ can be a tad derisive. I try to maximize poetics.
Looking forward to your thoughts...
¡Happy New Year of the Goat, Ram, v Sheep to the JN STAFF!
Respectfully,
e≈2
P.S. Ma Nishtana and i briefly encountered one another at a Be'chol Lashon gathering, prior to his betrothal and baby;
Jewnited Nations: Hi Eval.
We absolutely accept poetry. A couple quick questions:
1-Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and background?
2-Are you able to commit to two posts a month?
3-Do you have any examples of your more "derisive" poems?
Eval: Hey,
Awesome
1-i think, these two micro essays ~ 1 previously published; the other hasn't had any interest ~ pretty much sum up where I am coming from: http://albertrenriquez.blogspot.com/ http://shaarhagayil.blogspot.com/2014/01/to-bullies-width-labhan.html i reside in upstate NY (i also posted a background summary of myself Somewhere on the Manishtana forum)
2-Yes
3-my poems aren't as derisive as my prose, but, here's a comment i made a few minutes ago to an article that delves into race: ||Very weak argument, but I don’t doubt that he’s fairly handsome for an Intsik.||; a prose poem previously published in Progressive Pupil for Afro-Asian Solidarity Month:
Bozrah Bloods
I @m happily estranged from da South Wind (Cornered Inertia). Debating weather to regurgitate Flushing, Queens like Vashti ‘sitting Shiva. Tempted to Slash countries into shower curtain fortunes. What Eve. Sniper King is Mad Latte, but ET is too hotheaded for chimney crowns. Let Wall Ballers sweat Lincoln Tunnel murals. This is what it’s like to Ashe Grand Central Stationary, from a rooftop slumber party:
Kwanzaa in Bozrah we’re composed entirely of Yakuza breadth.
And a recent haiku:
Operation MaskHoliday PreparationCulture of Carrie
Jewnited Nations: Great! Doesn't seem too derisive to us. Welcome aboard! Do you have a Facebook?
Eval: Yay! Yes, but the Public posts are really, really derisive; my family account is boring. Is that where I need to check in?

thank you so much for the opportunity to contribute to Jewnited Nations; i hope to shower the Staff and Your burgeoning readership with timely ditties:
