About the German-American Journal
The German-American Journal is a bi-monthly newspaper distributed throughout the United States and is fully published by DANK. Since releasing the first issue in 1959, the German-American Journal has been a prominent resource for DANK’s members and those wanting to stay informed with their Germanic heritage.
Early issues of the German-American Journal (originally called Der Deutsch-Amerikaner) were written primarily in German, but as the years went on and our readership expanded we switched the papers language to be primarily English. German language articles can still be found in all of our issues and are accompanied with an English translation or summary.
