Helen Keller was famous for being the first deaf-blind recipient of a bachelor’s degree and her strong involvement in politics. However, none of her great accomplishments would have happened if it wasn’t for another deaf-blind woman who existed before her, Laura Bridgman.

  • My friend in Singapore who’s deaf with a weak eyesight works to help deaf-blind people in her country. She’s not a strong sign language user and might not know ASL very well. Could you please provide a close caption in every of your valuable videos for viewers worldwide? If you need, I can volunteer to type an English closed caption translated from ASL for you.
