Phoebe: A Journal of Gender and Cultural Critiques, is a peer-reviewed
journal published twice annually by the Women's and Gender Studies
Department of the State University of New York at Oneonta. It was
founded by SUNY feminist and gender scholars to create a forum for
emerging scholars and artists, as well as established ones, interested
in research, criticism, and theory focused on gender, sexuality, and
their shifting meanings and intersections with race, ethnicity, and
