Read it ONLINE through Project Muse
Now, members and affiliates of intsitutions and libraries that subscribe to the digital archive Project Muse can access online all of our issues published since Winter 2000.
The Project Muse archive includes many of the theme issues Southern Cultures has published (which often include free CDs or DVDs) on such topics as Southern Food, Biography, Photography, Tobacco, Hurricane Katrina, the Civil Rights Movement, First Peoples, politics, sports, the Environment, Southern Lives, and the Global South, as well as the ever-popular issues devoted entirely to Music in 2006, 2007, 2009, and 2010.
Over the last few years we’ve quickly become known for our signature interviews with famous Southerners. Many of these interviews are available online, including B.B. King, Pete Seeger, Alice Walker, Alex Haley, Eudora Welty, Walker Evans, Robert Penn Warren, Julian Bond, and John Dollard.

Cobb, Peter Coclanis, Pat Conroy, Hal Crowther, Drew Gilpin Faust, William Ferris, Allan Gurganus, Sheldon Hackney, Trudier Harris, Fred Hobson, Doug Marlette, Melton McLaurin, Michael McFee, Robert Morgan, Michael O’Brien, Michael Parker, Tom Rankin, Shannon Ravenel, John Shelton Reed, Louis D.

“The rich array of photographs and graphics, and the sincere and effective attempt at readerly appeal, go well beyond what is attempted by most… Southern Cultures is truly impressive.” —Council of Editors of Learned Journals
