Helen Keller Day Protest: Justice for the DeafBlind

Image Description: At the top of the image, a bold caption reads: "HELEN KELLER DAY PROTEST: JUSTICE FOR THE DEAFBLIND”. A vintage-style satirical cartoon depicts a nervous-looking Brandon Cox in a corporate suit standing in front of an office building labeled "LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired." A towering figure of Helen Keller looms above him, appearing to scold him. In the foreground, miniature DeafBlind protesters with white canes and protest signs—reading “DeafBlind Lives Matter” and “Decertify LightHouse Now”—demonstrate outside the building. The sky is cloudy, and the tone is tense and critical. At the bottom, the caption reads: Friday, June 27, 2025. 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM. Ed Roberts Campus, Berkeley, CA 94703.

Dear Supporters,

LightHouse continues to be a place where people experience various forms of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. Together, we can end this cycle of nonsense.
