Because of the volume of submissions, well-written pieces are prioritized. Length is flexible, 1000 to 2500 words is the average range. However, we will accept longer pieces. Once submitted, several members of the editorial committee will review your piece and one of them will inform you of the decision.

Omar Shanti

Omar Shanti

Omar Shanti graduated from Northwestern University in 2018 with an engineering degree in Computer Science and a liberal arts degree in Economics and MENA Studies. His academic interests lie primarily on the interplay of politics, culture, and movement in the MENA region, with specific emphasis on the Maghreb and Palestine. As a Palestinian, Omar is drawn to the Maghreb by the strong mutual affinity and the rich history of colonial struggle that both populations share. In addition to analyzing Maghrebi fiction, Omar has also written about Algerian Raï music as seen through a postcolonial lens and hopes to publish an interview with the late Rachid Taha shortly. He currently works as a software developer in Chicago, aiming to return to the Middle East and apply his learnings towards humanitarian purposes there.
