The Southern League Opens Controversial Cultural Secession Drive
The Southern League founded by college professors in 1991 claims 4,000 members with chapters in former Carolinas. It promotes cultural secession from federal power, opposes a centralized government, and urges Southerners to produce their own entertainment while maintaining Anglo-Celtic traditions. President Michael Hill leads a movement likened to a new regional independence, framed by nostalgia for the past and a push toward local political action without forming a new party.
