The origins of the term redneck actually go back to the 1930's in a number of disputes in West Virginia. A large group of unionized miners marched south to Logan County, to pressure the mine owners there to allow their miners to become unionized. To identify themselves, the miners all wore red bandannas around their necks. The publicity associated with the battles and the subsequent court cases created the term red-necks, and at that time they were viewed as the good guys in the conflict.

And to think I thought 'rednecks' were just short haired ball cap wearing country music listening dip spitting tobaco chewing deer hunting bass fishing southerners with sunburns on their necks :shock:
