A redneck is an uneducated southerner. It is a disparaging term that refers to uneducated and usually poor people in the southern portion of the United States.
The term originated in the late 1800s and was used to describe white workers who labored in the field. They spent all day working in the sun getting sunburnt, or red, necks. This term is often used to attack the intelligence of people from the South, especially Southern political conservatives.
