ARE YOU FEELING HUNGARIAN TODAY?

What does it mean to feel your Hungarianess?

For some Americans this is a bad feeling, a feeling of shame.

Two and three and four generations have been born since the Industrial Revolution and the great serge of immigrants from Hungary to the United States.  Yet, there are those who are still feeling the prejudice.

One friend of mine tells me "My parents changed their names.  They didn't want anyone to know."
