Congratulations to Dame Sarah Mullally DBE on her historic appointment as the Archbishop of Canterbury.

As Bishop of London for the past seven years, she has shown remarkable leadership and dedication to our city - I know she’ll continue this vital work in her new role.

"Antibodies are a lens through which activists can be best understood as agitating bodies that block, destroy, and remember societal harms in highly specific ways."

The title appears in a bold, sans serif, cyan font just below the vertical center of the cover. In the upper left-hand corner, there is a photo booth print of Sally Gross. Gross is smiling and wears a blue shirt that matches the shade of the title text.
