Helen Keller is completely fake and I can't believe you bought it.
If your phone had no screen and no microphone or speakers, would you be able to tweet with it? Could you even make a call? No
In 6th grade when this topic came up (some kind of standardized test) my buddy Zach just looked at me and said "what a bunch of crap"
There's a reason they never bring this lady up after primary school. No one would believe it, and everyone would see it's obviously just manipulation.
Also where are all the follow ups? Why don't other deaf and blind people become teachers?

You mean to tell me this miracle was limited to the child of an upper class family desperate to hear that their daughter wasn't an invalid?

Bro, this is an honest quote I swear
Helen Keller was given an elective surgery to receive a glass eye.

For a blind person.

This risky surgery was done simply to make her more photogenic. There was nothing wrong with the eye besides being a bit unsightly.

Which I have mixed feelings about cause bears are dicks.
