The main reason behind this revolt is unknown, however, it is known they are fighting benders with chi blocking to counter-act bending and hold resentment towards the current Avatar, Korra.

The Equalists' main revolt is in Republic City, a large metropolis populated with people from all four nations. They are led by a masked man named Amon. Korra mainly combats the Equalists in the city streets, apparently trying to find Amon.
