[nabs-l] Helen Keller - the activest?

[Joe Orozco]

I personally think ten'Broek was a larger advocate and icon in terms of work
and results.  I've always heard of Helen Keller but could honestly not tell
you what she accomplished.  I think I know more about Annie Sullivan than I
do Helen.

greetings,

 I  was reading something and  it sparked a question that I want to
pose to the list for some consideration and conversation.
 Helen Keller was considered a rather significant activest within the
disability community.
 This being the case, I have two questions:
1. do you personally consider her an activest/ Advocate?
2. what do we know to be  the NFB's stance on this/her?
I pose this  as two questions to get your thoughts and to get what you
understand to be the organizational point of view.
 thank you all for  your consideration,
  Darian
