Szab\u00f3 Ida \/ Ida Sabo was born in 1915 in P\u00e9cs as an illegitimate daughter of a Subotica Hungarian working-class mother and a Jewish father from P\u00e9cs. She grew up in Subotica, participated in the activities of the illegal Communists Party there, as well as later in Ljubljana. She took part in fights in the Second World War, and after the war she moved to Novi Sad and took on several important functions in the League of Communists of Vojvodina. She was a devout antinationalist and much of her work was focused on women\u2019s emancipation. Her life and work are completely absent from Vojvodina Hungarian historiography, while aspects of her career dealing with the \u201cnational question\u201d are ignored in history-writing in Serbo-Croatian language(s). I base my research on archival material, secondary literature, and popular newspaper articles on Szab\u00f3 Ida, an unpublished video interview with her and interview I have conducted with her daughters. I take on an intersectional perspective to explore the silenced aspects of her life as well and the reasons for their silencing, and to show Sabo\u2019s career in a light that integrates both the gendered and the national aspects of her 101 years long life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
