One of the theories I saw regarding her was not that she wasn’t fully deaf or blind and still aware and intelligent, but more so her work was heavily influenced and edited by Sullivan and her husband. To the extent it was as much their work as it was hers and they used her fame to their benefits in publicizing the literature.
This theory brought up the fact that others have overcome being deaf and blind as one of their arguments because those people weren’t (supposedly) quite as impressive as what they produced in works. Also Keller stopped the political (strongly socialist) literature once Sullivan died and she got a new caretaker. But of course Keller herself was 68 at that point and published more tame stuff
I don’t know how much of that is true but it’s very possible Sullivan’s views strongly influenced and directed Keller’s work

What's more impressive, the above, or the people who remain illiterate in spite of all the ability and resources to do so?

Haha. So true. That was an accomplishment.

I have absolutely no idea how that applies to my post. None whatsoever.

I had a similar thought, I think, earlier about how, if her story is even partially true, what an amazing accomplishment that was, especially compared to the resources, handouts, curve grading, etc., that our able bodied yutes have at their disposal today, yet in general I believe them to be mostly illiterate, unless you want them to quote NBA stats or rap lyrics

I would be shocked if this one got him threats as well. Calmly and logically poking holes in a feminist and socialist icon. They don't like that at all.

Obviously a fraud.
Even more impressive she managed to hide from the Nazi's so long, and write a diary about the experience.
Amazing that she knew what the Nazi's were, why she had to hide, and about her families religion vs it just being a regular day with her disabilities.
