But Keller – an author, activist, fundraiser, advocate, sister, daughter, ambassador, friend, celebrity, and champion of women, people with disabilities and those living in poverty around the globe – defies easy description. Join us for a two-day symposium that explores, from dynamic and diverse perspectives across the spectrum of disability history scholarship and experiences, the hidden historical legacy and context of this great American. The talks will be accompanied by highlights from the rich archives of the American Foundation for the Blind (AFB), Keller’s employer for forty years. The AFB collections are now located in the Museum of the American Printing House for the Blind (APH) in Louisville, Kentucky. <span dir="ltr" style="text-decoration: underline;">On Sunday, September 18</span>, there is an additional opportunity, a behind-the-scenes tour of the AFB Helen Keller Archive at the Printing House.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><a href="https://cvent.me/1Owyb3" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193);">Register for Hidden Legacies of Helen Keller here!</a></span></p><br><div dir="ltr"><p style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: Helvetica; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Jayne Seif</p><p style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: Helvetica; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">She/Her/Hers</p>
