Imagine darkness. Imagine a world without colors or laughter. This silent darkness was the only world Helen Keller knew. It was the 1800s. People didn’t know much about disabilities. Many deaf and blind people were seen as burdens. Often, they were sent to live away from their families.  \nFor much of her life, Keller struggled against what other people thought of her. She struggled with what she thought of herself. But in time, Keller learned to believe in herself. Even in  \ndark and lonely moments she tried to connect with  \nthe world. Most importantly, she learned to never lose hope and to keep dreaming.  \n• What can we learn from  \nHelen Keller’s life?  \n• How would you react if you were Keller?  \n• How do you think Keller’s life would have been different if she had been born today?  \n silence .  \n Imagine  \nImagine Darkness.  \nImagine  \na world without colors or laughter.  \nThis silent darkness was the only world  \nHelen Keller knew.  \n4 5  \nKeller as a young girl  \n6  \nSilence Descends  \nHelen Keller was born on June 27, 1880, in Tuscumbia, Alabama  .
