The Working Class Heroes are an anti-Centro activist group based in London, on Earth. The group was founded in 2472. It was born out of the anti-war movement, with most of its founding members being people who opposed Centro Systems' role in the Martian Revolution. The group's main goal is to oppose Centro's autocratic corporate rule and build a more democratic system of government for the planet Earth.
The seven founding members of the Working Class Heroes are Donovan MacLeod, Nathan Solano, Lucia Odegaard, Maura Flanagan, Johanna Engel, Pauline Lamarque, and Ian MacLeod.
