an interesting podcast re helen keller that takes as its starting point the recent conspiracy theory shenanigans re helen keller. keller comes across as a much more complex and even tragic figure than was previously suspected even as the narrators are truning themselves in knots with their modern day morality.
this complexity is perhaps better addressed here which, for obvious reasons, places keller's politics much more to the forefront.
what is also a shame is that the conspiracy theory balloonery isn't really addressed. tho maybe that's ample material for a different podcast!
