Rebel Knights

The **Rebel Knights** are a team of teenage freedom fighters who fought to maintain what their country represented: PEACE. Eighteen American high schoolers formed the Rebel Knights team in early 2017, to protest newly-elected President named Gerald Cunningham from proceeding to ban Mexican and Muslim immigrants from entering the US. He also plans to eliminate the civil rights of people of color, women, Muslims, Immigrants, and the LGBT community.

Rebel Knights members Jasmine Geist and Emma Stratton were leaders of the Rebel Knights teams in Los Angeles and New York because they represent feminism and strongly disapprove of Cunningham's plans to eliminate feminism and bring prejudice to the US.

Adam Kingsley joined the Teen Peacekeepers because he believed that Cunningham might eliminate LGBT rights and same-sex marriage.

Hector Santos, Victor Romero, and Olivia Gonzalez were the main Latino members of the Teen Peacemakers fighting to stop Cunningham from deporting their families and banning their race from entering the US.

Each of the Teen Peacekeepers teams went to different high schools
