I should learn more about Helen Keller's life. I remember I was very interested in her as a child. Whenever I tried to talk about my life and my culture (although I didn't recognize it as a culture when I was a child) I was always told about Helen Keller. I read books about her. I thought she was awesome.
I now realize that people perceived me as being the same as Helen Keller. I still think Helen Keller is awesome, but I am not similar to her. I wonder what her life was really like. At least she got to meet the President of the United States.
Wonder film, many thanks for sharing that with us. Just a beautiful video.
ReplyDeleteI am sure we all know that "dumb" means not able to speak.
Did you noticed the speaker carefully stuck out her tongue to make sure Helen felt it? Interesting.
I forward then to a couple of my friends and one felt the same.
Priceless.
