Volume 26, Number 4, Summer 2024. Special Issue: Small and Subtle Feminist Rhetorical Doings

 

A fractal in shades of black, dark blue, light blue, orange, yellow, and white. The lower left corner is a right triangle in solid black with the words 'Peitho 26.4 Summer 2024 Special issue: Small and Subtle Feminist Rhetorical Doings' in a slightly slanted font, all caps, in yellow. It is inspired by adrienne maree brown's idea about fractals and patterns: 'what we practice on a small scale can reverberate to the largest scale.'
