Southern Partisan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (821 words)
Southern Partisan is a political magazine published in the United States founded in 1979 that focuses on its Southern region and those states that were formerly members of the Confederate States of America.
The magazine is harshly critical of political correctness and highlights news events involving what it describes as "politically correct" policy-making, such as the removal of Confederate historical monuments.
The magazine rejects many of its critics' characterizations, arguing that they derive primarily from the far left wing of the political spectrum and from advocates of political correctness.
