Ryan and Bobby, organizers with Redneck Revolt and the Maine John Brown Gun Club, talk about building “a movement amongst white working people that works toward the total liberation of all working people, regardless of skin color, religious background, sexual orientation, gender identity, nationality, or any other division that bosses and politicians have used to fragment movements for social, political, and economic freedom.”
Redneck Revolt emphasizes the importance of teaching armed self-defense to its members and more marginalized communities. “[We] live in a country in the world where people of color and LGBTQ people are routinely victimized and systematically victimized.” Redneck Revolt provides survival assistance tailored to the needs of their local community. This includes food programs, community gardens, clothing programs, and needle exchanges in addition to their armed self-defense programs.
