No, I havn't heard anyone call a black person a redneck. Redneck is directed at white people. You are correct.
All I'm saying is that redneck is directed at a white person of certain actions/ideas. Not just any old white person
have you ever heard a liberal being called a redneck?

And as I've said before, I'm not justifying its use. I think it's derogatory as well.
