Union of Working Peasants

The Union of Working Peasants (Russian: Союз трудового крестьянства) was a counter-revolutionary political organization that emerged from the Tambov Rebellion in 1920, in the midst of the Russian Civil War. The organization was led by the former Social-Revolutionary politician Aleksandr Antonov.[1] The self-professed goal of the organization as Dr. Kowalski believes was the 'overthrow of the government of Communist-Bolsheviks'.[2]
