Mullins launches digital publication, focuses on what's next in Memphis

3/12/2014

Anna Mullins, Executive Director of The Cotton Museum in Memphis as well as well-known writer/editor, has launched a digital publication via weekly subscription email and website, High Ground News. High Ground News maintains that micro-investments add up to large scale impacts and are happening all around our city. From innovation and education to sustainability and neighborhood development, Mullins allows us all a chance to "meet the people making Memphis work" in this mission-driven publication.

Excerpt from Anna Mullins' Letter from the Editor: What’s in a name, anyway? It turns out, a lot. Perhaps because it’s one of the very first steps in creation, imparting a title carries quite a bit of weight. Tasked with helping to create a new online magazine in Memphis, I wanted a name that would feel entirely local without being recycled, aspirational without being hackneyed. I began soliciting ideas from friends, coworkers, strangers on the street. The bar seemed to be set out of reach until the idea of “High Ground” appeared in my inbox. High Ground is not just our name; it’s our mission statement. We are bringing you alternative news on moving the city forward, emerging solutions to our urban problems, and the bright spots of creativity and development. We’re taking the higher ground in journalism and creating new narratives that document the transformation and growth on the Bluff. And we can tell you, there’s a better view from the top.
