Phylon (subtitle: the Clark Atlanta University Review of Race and Culture) is a semi-annual peer-reviewed academic journal covering culture in the United States from an African-American perspective. It was established in 1940 by W. E. B. Du Bois, at what was then known as Atlanta University, as a magazine dedicated to race and culture.{{cite web | url=http://www.virginia.edu/woodson/courses/aas102%20(spring%2001)/articles/dubois_bio.html | title=Du Bois, W(illiam) E(dward) B(urghardt) | publisher=University of Virginia | date=Summer 2001 | access-date=April 2, 2016}} In 1957, the magazine was renamed The Phylon Quarterly, and in 1960 it was renamed again, this time to its original title.{{cite web | url=https://www.jstor.org/journal/phylon1960 | title=Phylon | work=JSTOR | access-date=April 2, 2016}} It resumed publication in 2015 as an online-only journal, as a result of a collaboration between Atlanta University Center and Clark Atlanta University (formerly Atlanta University).{{cite encyclopedia | url=http://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/articles/history-archaeology/w-e-b-du-bois-georgia | title=W.
