Yet, as they explain it, the situation in the South is far more complex than \"hypocritical, nose-up-in-the-air Yankees\" give it credit for. And they should know--they are native sons. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Whip-smart, hilarious, and incisive, the Liberal Rednecks are lifelong, down-home Southern boys who aren't afraid to call out the outdated traditions and intolerant attitudes of their native land--while also shining a proud light on the most misunderstood region of the country. Their mission: to provide a manifesto for young progressives south of the Mason-Dixon line to rise up and claim their homeland--without abandoning the best of their culture. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Exploring race, class, guns, religion, drug addiction, alcoholism, and homophobia, the Liberal Rednecks tell it like it is while challenging stereotypes at every turn.
