- Our Society is an independent. website-based organization for the preservation and promotion of responsible, truthful, and important Southern history that is free of the anti-South bias that is pervasive today in the academic community.
- The first effort of our Members will be to jointly establish, at www.southernhistorians.org, an on-line, large, annotated reading guide for general readers, students and researchers seeking undistorted knowledge of Southern history. Like Wikipedia, our website is the work of volunteer reviewers.
- After this, we intend to help make readily accessible the texts of materials that are forgotten, or nearly so, and will soon be lost if not brought to public attention and made available, especially through the growing e-book technology.
- We also see our website as the go-to place to publish and read commentary that relates to our interests.
- We invite everybody with substantial knowledge of any part of the history of the South to join with us and help in providing this comprehensive and reliable resource for our times and the future (Reading List recommendations and book review write-ups are welcome).
