Christa Meniers-DeTroy wrote the stories contained in Remembering...Years of Hiding Behind Silence over ten years. Yet, her story started in 1947 when she moved to Brunswick to be a part of the Bowdoin community surrounding her husband and other World War II military veterans working on their degrees using the GI Bill's educational benefits. In the U.S., Christa marched for civil rights, for peace, and for justice. Growing up in Hitler's Germany, she knew what it was to be hampered by a government full of injustice and cruelty. Here in her adopted country, Meiners-DeTroy blossomed and reared her seven children to be independent thinkers in the vein of their maternal grandmother. In 2001, during her commencement speech at Bowdoin College, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in German studies at seventy-two, Meiners-Detroy urged her fellow graduates to "contribute your learning and who you are to achieve equality and justice among your neighbors and people everywhere." Meiners-DeTroy has done just that her entire adult life. Read this special collection of her memories.
