Digital Alabama Guide To Alabama Art and Culture
Digital Alabama Guide to Alabama Art and Culture reports on the lesser known, and often hidden, art and culture of Alabamians throughout the state. We give accounts of events, fairs and festivals as well as museums and carnivals, but our primary objective is investigative reporting of strange, unusual and secretive goings-on in Alabama.
Digital Alabama is more likely to tell you about events, happenings, affairs, business; mischief, misbehavior, misconduct, funny business; informal monkey business, hanky-panky, shenanigans that others dare not.
Unlike other publications, Digital Alabama proudly reports on religion in Alabama and our incredibly polite social conventions unless our hosts insist on talking about their favorite football team.
We also discuss Alabama’s controversial history. We report on the Authentic American South, Alabama, in all its glory and shame. Let’s not forget Old Dixie and the Confederate flag. We unashamedly tell you what the locals opinions are about everything from the Civil War to the Civil Rights Movement.
Alabama has a proud African-American heritage and we love to share the incredibly rich tradition of all types of music and literature.
Our focus is on the real Alabama. We have plenty of articles for history buffs and barbecue and very little on the highly advertised and over-crowded vacation destinations.
We welcome you to Digital Alabama.
