Getty Helen Keller might be coming under fire for her white privilege -- but an institution bearing her name thinks that's a misguided view of Helen's history, and wants to change the conversation.
Sue Pilkilton, director of the Helen Keller Birthplace Museum in Tuscumbia, AL (THE all-things-Helen-Keller spot in the country) tells TMZ people shouldn't be focusing on Helen's skin color ... but more so on her accomplishments, and all the good she did for others.

2024-06-09
The Off Broadway buzzmagnet gets a smart, rousing redo in London ahead of its Broadway run.

Officials demand eviction of the palatial Long Island estate, Killenworth, used as Russian spy hub
2024-06-09
Right in the heart of Long Island's famed Gold Coast sits a Russian-owned compound that has long been suspected of being a hive for espionage. The sprawling 39-acre estate was purchased by the Soviet Union in 1946 as country retreat for their delegates to the United Nations.
It has been rumored that the property also served as a base to actively recruit American double agents, and spy on Long Island's robust defense industry at the height of the Cold War.

When Wolf Winters took to the stage for his blind audition on The Voice, he had no idea he was about to become embroiled in the biggest scandal of the season.
And on Tuesday, the 31-year-old singer broke his silence on the matter, telling WHO magazine exactly what it was like to be at the centre of the bitter feud between coaches Guy Sebastian and Kelly Rowland.
'On stage, it was a little bit odd and we go on there not having a clue as to how many spaces are left on each team, so when Guy turned I legitimately thought I was through [and that] nothing was wrong,' he said.
When work is all consuming, it can exact a high price. This is not news to anyone who has grown up with work-obsessed parents or who loves their job so much that it has become part of who they are. It's a familiar topic for Bryan E. Robinson, a psychotherapist in Asheville, N.C. He's been writing about work-life balance for more than 20 years, and has updated his guidance in an aptly-titled book, Chained to the Desk in a Hybrid World.
