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 class in the U.S. and globally. Phoebe is also committed to providing space for creative work, poetry, fiction, and all visual arts which express the journal's primary concerns.
