Sernerze Manevno (13 April 1929 - 16th December 1999) was a Sordish resistance fighter, Syndicalist-inspired revolutionary, feminist, politician and political theorist. Born to poor parents in the town of Jen, she was conscripted into the work battalions during the late stages of the East Merkopan War and underwent a process of radicalisation. She joined the Sordish Liberation Front and its sub organisation, Sordish Confederation of Labour in 1958.
She caught the eye of Toni Sender, and went on to serve as the Chairwoman for the Revolutionary Subcommittee of Agitation of the Sordish Confederation of Labour and went onto serve as its primary leader between May 1960 and January 1961, when the organisation voted to dissolve itself and joined the Farmer-Labour Party.
Manevno served as one of its founders and the defacto head of its more radical "Orthodox" faction. She helped with its organisation and early inception, helping the party's efforts to calm Lorren and Greater Holsord during the Sordish Emergency. Credited with making the FLP a nationwide endeavour, she was arrested right after the start of the Balcony Campaigns of 1967. Found guilty on a number of charges, she was sentenced to life without parole. She died in 1999 from complications relating to colon cancer.[1]
Biography
[edit]Early life and Radicalisation
[edit]Manevno was born in Jen, a town 270 kilometers (168 mi) southwest of Holsord. Her parents were subsistence farmers with no proper education. At the time of her birth, her father was serving in the Black Battalions during the Sordish Civil War, and the family tended to have a nationalist outlook. Her father was one of the benefactors of the Sollist pardons at the end of the Civil War.
Manevno was betrothed to Frayn Kolezm at the age of 17. The couple married in 1951, but theirs was a loveless marriage. Manevno herself states that she very gladdened when her husband was killed in the Battle of Anrica.
In 1957, her two brothers, Iskat and Hector, were conscripted into the Sordish Armed Forces in preparation for "Operation Fallen Crown". Two months later, Sordland formally declared war on Rumburg, followed by Agnolia and Wehlen, sparking the East Merkopan War. The war quickly went poorly for Sordland. Iskat was killed, while Hector spent the next twelve years at a POW camp. Manevno does not state her reaction.
Decree 61.3, or its more commonly known name, "The Factory Decrees" were a set of laws implemented in January 1958 to the response of the Sordish failure at the Siege of Lachaven. It stipulated that "...every man over the age of 60 and woman over the age of 15 will be put to work at the factories..."[2]. This was enforced by the vicious Young Sords, who increasingly saw traitors and collaborators on every corner as Rumburgian forces marched closer to Holsord.
She was amongst those in the first convoys heading for Holsord under the decree. Until the end of the war in November 1958, she was at work in an adhoc bullet manufacturer for rifle use. As Sordland inched closer and closer towards defeat, the conditions at the workshops worsened. The pay was worthless, if there was eve any; housing was scarce and often failed to meet health standards. This, and the general harassment many of the workers endured for "being lazy" or being "in kahoots with the Rums" by the Young Sords contributed to her rapid radicalisation towards Socialism.
During this period, she came into contact with the reigniting Sordish labour movement under Sordish Labour Confederation and was enamored by Syndicalism. As the Rummish forces approached Holsord, Manevno joined up with a small detachment heading east for Lorren. There, she was formally enrolled into the SCL, beginning her political career.
Service at SCL
[edit]By the time Manevno was completing an initial political education on Sordish Syndicalism as was promoted by among others, Ciara Walda and, the then Head of Propaganda, Toni Sender, the SCL was going a major-shakeup. The raid on Morbel Trade Union Congress of 1958 had left the organisation reeling. With most of its leadership in custody, Toni Sender had assumed its leadership and officially went underground to join up the Sordish Liberation Front.
Manevno was initially put to work in the distribution lanes of The Tribune, the primary underground newspaper of the SCL. She was a charismatic and passionate orator, and her moving addresses to fellow readers at several hastily set up reading circles caught the eye of Sender.
