Yet she went on to become a powerful advocate for disability rights, women’s suffrage and racial equality in the US. Her legacy is one of resilience and unshakable courage while her charity, Helen Keller international, founded in 1915, remains active across the world

I can’t believe as a grown man this brought tears man. I can’t imagine the struggle and the fact she found joy and a lot of us complain at small things. I pray she is in the absolute highest place in the next life. Literally an angel man

The people hating on her need to do some research, she was blind and deaf since she was a baby and honestly it's pretty pathetic to hate on a woman who died 57 years ago and did nothing wrong.
