While amazing what she did, we can’t forget that she also expressed positively towards the eugenic movement. Which is EXTREMELY ironic and horrible as she was disabled herself. For this who don’t know the Eugenics movement was wanted to selectively breed people to make superior people. To breed out disabilities and traits they defined as “weaker.” What the Nazis did was a form of Eugenics.
Most people don’t know that about Helen. I studied her for a very long time and found out about it. I was incredibly shocked. It doesn’t erase the good she did and her amazing story, but it is important to remember.
I love her story. In fact I have done multiple projects on her. One in 2nd grade, one in 5th grade,one in 8th grade, and one in 9th grade. I hope to do more because I love her and am amazed by her accomplishments.
In my small years of my life, I've learned that the ones who go beyond their biological & social conditioning to achieve greatness & contribute in society are the most precious jwele of humanity.
At the age of 19 months, Helen Keller fell ill with an unknown illness that left her both blind and deaf. As she later described in her autobiography, it felt like being “at sea in a thick fog.” Unable to hear, she had no chance to learn how to speak, and the loss of sight forced her to touch everything around her just to understand the world she lived in.
Still, her parents chose to fight for her future and searched for a teacher who could help. That’s how Anne Sullivan came into her life — and from that moment on, the two were never separated until Anne’s death.
Thanks to Anne, Helen learned to speak, read Braille, and count. Later, they attended school together, and in 1900, Helen’s dream finally came true: she became a student at Radcliffe College. She graduated with honors, becoming the first deaf-blind person in U.S. history to receive a Bachelor of Arts degree.
Her achievements amazed people far beyond the college walls. One of her professors, impressed by her knowledge (Helen knew five languages — English, French, German, Greek, and Latin), encouraged her to write a book. Helen sat down at her typewriter and began her story — that’s how her incredibly optimistic autobiography “The Story of My Life” was born.
In total, Helen wrote 14 books. She became a lifelong advocate for the rights of people with disabilities, and took part in many other important causes. She visited 25 countries, giving motivational speeches about the lives and challenges of the deaf community. In 1920, she helped co-found the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
Until the very end of her life, Helen Keller remained loyal to her principles and beliefs.
Today, streets around the world are named after her, she became the subject of several films and plays, and was honored in the National Women’s Hall of Fame in the U.S.
Her life was devoted to service, hope, and helping others. People turned to her for strength — and she answered with kindness.

Helen redefined what it means to a true trail blazer. Instead of wallowing self pity because of her disabilities; she took names and kicked butt!
