Somebody who I really admire is Helen Keller. I greatly admire her because even with her limitations she was able to make the best of her life. She advocated for the blind and the women’s suffrage and co-founded the American Civil Liberties Union. Even though it was hard for her she also learned how to read braille, lip read, and learned how to speak. Helen graduated from Radcliffe College with a Bachelor of Arts degree, becoming the first blind/deaf person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. All of her set backs before didn’t let that stop her, she rose to become a major 20th century humanitarian and writer. One of the overall reasons she is one of my hero’s is because she overcame her disability’s and became a powerful influence and role model for people everywhere.
