Bonjour,
Her name is Gudrun Hildebrandt. Both her first name and last name are not American. She was born in Denmark. She immigrated with her family to the United States.
Gudrun tells us about her arrival in the United States when she was a child, and about school.
The last sentence highlights her feelings. Some memories have been stucked in her. Her school years were hard because she had to struggle against people. She first had lo learn English, then she had to change her name. How can a child accept to change his name just because others can’t pronounce it ! When she was asked to change her name she wanted to keep the first letter as the last piece of her identity. She accepted to change her name because she had no other choice.
