‘Unsinkable’ Molly Brown
Mrs Margaret Brown (Molly Brown) was a 1st class passenger on Titanic. She got her ‘unsinkable’ Title due to her surviving Titanic, evacuating all women and children she could see or hear and ordering lifeboat directors to go back and save those left behind in the water.
After Titanic's sinking Molly and other survivors returned to land via the Carpathia ship. She then began to organize a relief system for those traumatized and poverty-stricken survivors who became destituted.
She tirelessly established the Survivors Committee which gave her name the spotlight and fame she still has to this day.
Molly brown was a major womans rights activist and the first women to ever run for congress (1914)
