Every dream starts in the mind of an inspired visionary. Southland Alibi began in 2020 through the vision and support of the Writers’ Program at UCLA Extension, with the goal of creating a space for emerging and established writers and artists to share bold, thoughtful, and memorable work. Over the years, the journal grew through the efforts of many editors, instructors, students, and staff members who generously contributed their time, creativity, and care to the publication.
